I have created the flow passage by Autodesk inventor, but I cannot create the flow passage in Ansys modellar, what should I do? please...

To create Fluid model use the "Blade Modeler" option of Design modeler.
To activate Blade Modeler tool, you need to set the license preference in workbench to Blademodeler first and then to Design modeler (just sorting)

Once set, you will get a dedicated tool to create Flowpath and Fluidzone.

If you don't want the solid blade, then you can suppress it. Otherwise you can keep the solid blade as it is

This is the flow passage...how can I export points and the blade in workbench please?

shivasluzz August 3, 2016 10:38

You have manually created the periodic surfaces of flow passage it seems and you have done it wrongly.
Use the method which I explained.
Once you create the Flowpath in design modeler, then you export the points using "export point" tool.
Once done, connecting a turbogrid component will automatically import the flowpath

After doin' that, how can I define the blade?

shivasluzz August 3, 2016 10:44

Blade will be defined by choosing its surfaces (except the top and bottom surfaces) while using export points tool

Do you have pdf tutorials for any future problem? please

I successfully generated the flow path but the export points give error....I think it is due to the blade...any help?

shivasluzz August 6, 2016 08:26

What is the error?

Ahmed Saeed Mansour August 6, 2016 10:24

The export points failed! I have tried many times ..I don't know what is the problem with the blade!

shivasluzz August 6, 2016 10:28

What is the error message?

Try increasing the Hub/Shroud offset % value in 'export point' tool option

Ahmed Saeed Mansour August 6, 2016 10:31

what does this do please?...I have drawn the hub and the shroud by projecting them from the blade by inventor so I have the same dimensions of the blade...do you think this is the problem?

Ahmed Saeed Mansour August 6, 2016 10:53

ok I will check it out
