Reset units in Ansys Geometry

counter45 · March 14, 2014, 08:37

Hi, I have created an Ansys Geometry using Meters as the scale.
How do I change the units to mm. Also, will it affect other components that i link to like fluent and transient structure.

Thanks

go to the units tab and set "display in project units" on. then change the project units to whatever you like. should work. this will not affect any of the results as long as you are working in ansys with ansys meshing. when exporting to icem, it sometimes gets a little confused but then you can just scale down the geometry.
