[ANSYS Meshing] Weird issue: Solid names/even shape changing while exporting from Ansys DM to Mesher

nvarma · May 21, 2015, 16:26

Hello, I have modeled a fairly complicated 3d geometry on workbench. I checked each "body" in the tree. However in the mesher, the names appear jumbled randomly.

Did I miss a step while exporting to ensure that the names stay the same or is workbench going awry?

I updated/closer-reopened multiple times?

Any help is appreciated.

Hi Nvarma,

assuming you are creating geometry in DM and mesher is attached in the module which you are opening/updating. You dont have to do anything, it should pick bodies and NS automatically.

I reckon your WB is proly giving some error. Try to do same with a simple geometry and see what happens.

Hi Kapi,
thanks for the quick response.

Yeah I figured it was a workbench error..I had to create some of the geometry again and save the project. That worked.

Thanks!
