Importing Files

Introduction

OpenVSP will import a variety of file formats including existing OpenVSP 3 models, triangulations/meshes, rectilinear wireframes, OpenVSP v2 models, blade element models, and point clouds. Each of these file types will have their own processes and assumptions when bringing geometry into OpenVSP which will be discussed in subsequent tutorials.

Chapter 4: Import and Export Capabilities

These subjects focus on the various import and export capabilities included with OpenVSP. Some file types are more complex to produce well and will have their own subjects dedicated to guiding users through the process. Users should expect to customize the model export settings to produce quality files for other software.
