Ansys DesignModdler problem!

NIMAR · January 2, 2011, 18:27

Hello..

is there a button in DesignModeler where i could indicate my inlet and outlet for a 2D pipe. I have drawn a rectangle with a surface which represents the 2D geometry and in the tree it only shows one part and there are no regions at all. I want to import in Ansys mesh and then to fluent where in the fluent i could run my simulation!

Appreciate if anyone could help through this

Thanks

As you can see in the picture below

it only shows 1 Part and 2Bodies:

I wanna have one part three bodies:
+1 part
+three bodies
-Inlet
-Outlet
-walls

Thank you!

Rightclick to select an entity such as an edge, face or body and create a named selection (such as INLET) out of it.

Named selections can be created in the CAD, DM or ANSYS Meshing and will be persistent. I usually create them in the ANSYS Meshing tool because I prefer how that one works.

Best regards,

Simon

I did make a short movie about this late last year, but never got it up to youtube... In the mean time, you can get it from here...

ftp://ftp.ansys.com/outgoing/simon/N...luentBocos.zip

The movie deals with solids, for 2D, just go down a dimension. Solids become faces and faces become edges.

Best regards,

Simon

Named selections are the key to boundary conditions in Workbench... And here it is on Youtube...
