Problem: I have a large fluid domain that contains duplicate geometries, and I want to mesh one of the geometries, copy/transform the mesh (to avoid remeshing duplicate parts), and guaranteed that the mesh is continuous across boundaries.

Can this be done in Workbench?

As a somewhat related question, is it possible in Ansys mesher to import a legacy mesh (External Model or FE Modeler), and then generate a continous/conformal mesh (Ansys Mechanical) based off of the surface mesh from the legacy part? I have the legacy geometry file.

Thanks,
Tony
