Different solid materials?

Sandeep Reddy · May 15, 2017, 14:07

Hello Everyone,

I am a bit new to ANSYS. I want to assign different type of materials to different solids in same project. But I am unable to do that. I just need to know
how to assign different type materials to different solids in ANSYS FLUENT at setup stage. Please let me know.

In Fluent, you assign the materials in cell zone conditions. However, this requires that there is more than 1 cell zone, usually you would create distinct zones during the meshing process. Less often, you would split a single zone into multiple zones.
