Hello,

i am an undergrad mech engg student and i want to do a simulation of an impedance pump and for that i need to use MFX .However i am a beginner so i worked through the tutorial(the ansys tutorial of a micropump with peizoelectric actuation) and then made an very very simple simulation myself to see how the MFX works.

However in both cases the solution just happens and i'm left with some files in the working directory. The problem is when i launch cfx post and try to read results it can't find anything it can read or process in the output directory. I check the folder it generates for any file it could open but nothing was there either. As for the ANSYS output file i don't even know what to open it with, or how to open it for that matter.

i think i'm making a simple mistake but i am confident i performed the tutorial correctly. can anyone please advise?
