Abstract
The use of numerical methods to forecast aerodynamic phenomena have an important role in the industry, and the generation of meshes is an extremely important step for the expected results. This work seeks to develop the automatic generation of structured meshes through integration between the Python language and the free software OpenFoam, which interprets, through the blockMesh tool, a dictionary, then generate the structured mesh. The comparison with unstructured meshes was used in order to verify the computational efficiency and accuracy of the generated structured meshes.
