[DesignModeler] Design Modeler Import causing problems

mimozas1 · March 4, 2024, 17:18

Hallo!

I have the model of a UAV as an .obj file.
When i import it to the Design Modeler i get a green tic at the Import1, as shown in the image.
But whenever i try to create the fluid domain (boolean or enclosure or whatever method) it always fails so i have come to believe its the import that causes the problem.
I have come to think that it is something to be said in the way DM names my UAV.
What does the fact that at the " 1 Part, 1 Body " tab it is named with " \Facets " , as shown in the image???

Thanks a lot!

I have never come across an obj file. However, have you tried using Ansys SpaceClaim instead?
