open TELEMAC-MASCARET The mathematically superior suite of solvers

Hopefully someone can point me in the right direction.
I would like to get infomation from Telemac2D and Telemac3D GEOMETRY and RESULT files into ParaView. Does anyone have a Pluggin for Paraview that reads the SELAFIN files or a routine/script that can convert the SELAFIN format to one that can be read directly by ParaView (retaining all of the information - B, Z, U, V, W etc) .
I am working on a Linux box (Ubuntu) so I would prefer to remain in that environment but can live with Windows executable.

Thanks in advance

Hello Bruce,

Actually, there are several ways to use Paraview with Telemac :

Convert Selafin files to VTK :

we can provide a (small) program (not very smart though),

Load Selafin files in Paraview : a plugin has been developed and can be sent. However, it requires a manual installation (using CMake I guess) as well as some knowledge on Paraview (that I haven't yet),

Another solution (available in the next version of TELEMAC) requires to export TELEMAC results in the MED format which can be processed by the Salome platform in which Paraview is encapsulated. We are still working on compatibility between the m_med.f routine and the latest MES library.


So, those who are interested in solution (1) or (2) can send me a mail (This email address is being protected from spambots. You need JavaScript enabled to view it.). These solutions are also available on our SVN repository (I should check before posting the link).

We will be able to release in V6P2 a data converter for handling Selafin files.

Best regards,

Thanks for the quick reply. I will send an email in the morning (Canada-Pacific Coast) regarding 1) and 2). I didn't see anything in the SVN repository last week (except for the tecplot pluggin and Rubens/Matisse installation) but I may have missed something.

Again - Thanks

Bruce

Bruce,

there's this small tool sel2vtk I've developed some years ago. I think you may find it in the svn repo under bin/AddOns Paraview_Plugins/sel2vtk. Or you may download it from www.ogoethel.de/tools. I'm not sure if all the information that's available in the selafin file will be converted but it's sure worth a try.

Have fun

Thanks for the information and direction. I some how missed the Paraview directory in the repository. Downloaded your routine and will see how things go.
