when I used workbench of ANSYS,I cannot mesh the space of my stuff. it's like a hollow cylinder(image), after generate mesh, I wanna get the grid inside the cylinder, not only the surface. can anyone told me how to solve it ?

Hello,

To get mesh inside you must have something inside your cylinder. For instance if you want to mesh a fluid inside your cylinder, then you create two bodies: a solid body (your hollow cylinder) and then you create another body which will occupy the inside cavity of the cylinder (which will be a fluid body). This way you should be able to get mesh both inside the cylinder and on the sides of the cylinder.

K-omega SST is just a stronger turbulence model. Usually gives better convergence for something where k-epsilon doesn't work. But I believe if you refine your mesh, you will be able to convergence. Is this a steady-state or transient simulation?
