COMSOL 6.2 - Exporting Meshes to Files

model.component(<ctag>).mesh(<tag>).export(<filename>);

where <filename> is a string or a file location URI used to identify a file version in a Model Manager database. The file can be any of the following formats.

Table 4-8: Valid File Formats.
File Format	Note	File Extensions
COMSOL Multiphysics Binary		.mphbin
COMSOL Multiphysics Text		.mphtxt
NASTRAN file		.nas, .bdf, .nastran, .dat
STL Binary (3D)	1	.stl
STL Text (3D)	1	.stl
Sectionwise		.txt
PLY Binary (3D)	2	.ply
PLY Text (3D)	2	.ply
3MF (3D)		.3mf
1 Use model.mesh(<tag>).export().set("stlformat",<format>) to specify the STL file format ("binary" or "text")
2 Use model.mesh(<tag>).export().set("plyformat",<format>) to specify the PLY file format ("binary" or "text")
