Convert NASA's Plot3D mesh format into Gmsh's MSH format

NASA's Plot3D to Gmsh's MSH converter

Small Python script to convert from Plot3D into Gmsh mesh format. In general you'll need mesh in Plot3D format (script was tested with files from http://turbmodels.larc.nasa.gov) and Neutral Map File for boundary description (also available from NASA for 3D versions of the meshes).

Usage

$ p3d2gmsh.py [-o OUT_FILE] [-m MAP_FILE] P3D_FILE

    P3D_FILE: name of file with the mesh
    MAP_FILE: Neutral Map File (if omitted script will search for a file with
              nmf extension and the name of mesh file)
    OUT_FILE: name of output file (if omitted script will save a file with msh
              extension and the name of the mesh file)
