pipe idealization ansys workbench
 

when i use the workbench, it show the problem.

"The program has detected a tubular cross section that contains a bend. Consider using a “pipe idealization” condition in order to capture possible cross section distortion"

do you know how to solve it.

thank you

I'm aware I'm late but I was looking for info on this right now so it might be helpful to someone else.

Basically, in Mechanical select your geometry that contains a pipe profile that has a bend in it. Under Model Type instead of Beam select Pipe and then in right click the Static Structural and Insert -> Pipe idealization. You can read about what Factor does in the 2nd link.
