Creating a geometry from an ASCII file

Please login with a confirmed email address before reporting spam

Hello to everyone:

First of all I apologize because I am a beginner in the use of COMSOL.

I want to create a 2D- axial geommetry. I have a file with the (r,z) coordinates to create the object and I do not know to import this coordinate file into comsol.

Can anyone help me?

Thank you in advance.

Hi, I forgot to close this topic. Sorry!. It is quite easy. I was surprised why comsol can not import these kind of data directy. Especially given that is a program that manages geometries. You must follow the following steps:

1 step: Import your file in AutoCAD.
2 step: Import the autocad file in COMSOL


And that is all what you need to do.
