Visualizing grid blocks

Dears,

 

I have the attached MESH file generated using MESHMAKER. I would like to know if there is a simple Python code that enables me to read and visualize the grid blocks in Pyvista.

 

Thanks in advance

    Hi Refaat,

    toughio's has some mesh generating capabilities that provide more flexibility than TOUGH's built-in meshmaker (although MINC is not currently supported).

    In your case, your mesh can be easily generated (and visualized) with toughio with the following script:

    import toughio
    
    dx = [1.0, 1.0, 2.0, 4.0, 4.0, 8.0, 15.0, 20.0, 30.0, 40.0, 50.0, 50.0, 100.0, 150.0, 50.0, 150.0, 300.0, 50.0, 475.0, 500.0, 500.0, 500.0, 500.0, 500.0, 500.0, 500.0, 500.0, 500.0, 1.e-3]
    dy = [7.0, 6.0, 6.0, 2.5, 1.0, 2.5, 6.0, 12.0, 6.0, 3.0, 3.0, 3.0, 6.0, 12.0, 6.0, 3.0, 3.0, 3.0, 6.0, 12.0, 6.0, 3.0, 3.0, 3.0, 6.0, 12.0, 6.0, 3.0, 3.0, 3.0, 6.0, 12.0, 6.0, 3.0]
    dz = 10 * [5.0]
    mesh = toughio.meshmaker.structured_grid(dx, dy, dz)
    mesh.plot(show_edges=True, notebook=False)
    

    I might add a function to generate a mesh by reading a MESHMAKER block.

      Keurfon Luu Thanks. Yes, this technique is more flexible. I think it is needed to add a line to write the generated mesh in MESH file.

      Refaat G Hashish Yeah, to export to MESH file, simply run:

      mesh.write_tough()
      

      In addition, you can also define initial and boundary conditions and then write MESH and INCON files at the same time with the option "incon":

      mesh.write_tough(incon=True)

      See documentation here: https://keurfonluu.github.io/toughio/examples/co2_leakage_along_a_fault/2_generate_mesh_and_incon_files.html#sphx-glr-examples-co2-leakage-along-a-fault-2-generate-mesh-and-incon-files-py

      Keurfon Luu I am trying to use toughio to generate mesh with the following grid size:

      dx = [2901.070796, 1490.477176, 252.8552933, 138.3925339, 75.74487841, 41.45661939, 22.69, 12.41867059, 6.796975727, 3.720114701, 2.036089865, 1.114390892, 0.60992743, 0.333824938, 0.182708768, 0.05, 0.182708768, 0.333824938, 0.60992743, 1.114390892, 2.036089865, 3.720114701, 6.796975727, 12.41867059, 22.69, 22.69, 12.41867059, 6.796975727, 3.720114701, 2.036089865, 1.114390892, 0.60992743, 0.333824938, 0.182708768, 0.05, 0.182708768, 0.333824938, 0.60992743, 1.114390892, 2.036089865, 3.720114701, 6.796975727, 12.41867059, 22.69, 41.45661939, 75.74487841, 138.3925339, 252.8552933, 1490.477176, 2901.070796]

      When I get the the MESH file of the grid model (attached), I find the coordinates are rounded to the nearest integer.

      I wounder if can use the code to generate mesh with accurate coordinates (numbers with 3 decimals).

    I have used your Toughio code to convert a FLAC3d grid to tough mesh. now i need to check if the converted mesh is correct . can there a simple way to visualize the tough mesh in 3D ??

     

    Thank you in advance
