parametric study in flow simulation

hello, i am newbie here and in flow simulation of solidworks,

still learning about how to use features in solidworks flow simulation,

right now i have a bit trouble using flow simulation,

i want to use "parametric study" so that i can varying my design and make several configuration in flow simulation. the case is pump, and i want to varying the impeller's blade. after running a few scenario, i get 3 variation of number blade. but when i create the project, the change of new configuration will affect another configuration before. so that my first result will lost due to change of model. is there some way that my newest configuration wouldn't change another configuration?
and how to save result in some kind file so that i can use "load from file" option that available in flow simulation?

Your calculations are not lost. The error message simply says that the geometry has changed and if you want to accept the changes etc. The results are still there in the *.fld files.

This is simply a point of using the design tables or the component. So it depends on what you exactly did. If you change an anlge in the mates of the assembly you shouldn't get any error message.
