The following pages describe the procedures for running the CENTAUR graphical interface. This program, centaur, reads in a CAD definition file and through the use of a Graphical User Interface (GUI), the proper boundary conditions and grid parameters are assigned to the geometry. This tool is also used to generate grids using the CENTAUR  hybrid grid generator. To start the graphical interface on a Unix/Linux machine, simply run the following command at the command prompt:

On Windows, simply double click on the CENTAUR icon on the desktop or choose CENTAUR from the Start menu.
