Best Practice for Multiple Zones in ANSYS Design Modeler for a 3D Structured Mesh for Fluent Simulation
I am building a structured mesh in a rectangular domain to model the flow over a wing with impinging jets at the root over the surface in the spanwise direction. I've tried building unstructured ...

Uniform Direction for Line Directions
Despite several similar questions and my efforts, there is still no solution so far. Presently, ANSYS gives Directions to Lines on its own which are flipped even for two collinear lines. As a results ...

Need to Align Line Directions Normals Along Specific Coord in APDL
In Preprocessor of APDL, I have built areas which are meshed with shell element and lines meshed with beam elements. I have assigned Sections to Beam elements but when I view them their cross sections ...

Setting direction vectors for Lines in ANSYS APDL
I am using beam elements to mesh lines with "pre-meshed" shell areas. Problem is that the ANSYS sets Line Direction vectors on its own. This results in Cross sections assignment flipped from ...

Need to Align All Line Normals to Global Direction in ANSYS APDL
I am using beam elements to mesh lines with "pre-meshed" shell areas. Problem is that the line normals are arbitrarily assigned to the lines resulting beam cross sections switched at line ...

In Ansys ICEM CFD, what do these "cube" symbols on the midpoint of block edges mean?
When I was meshing a helical coil, I've noticed these "cube" symbols located at the midpoint of a the block's edges: Blocks with these symbols tend to have a lot of strange/unpredictable ...

Mesh convergence and its affect on results
Let’s say I had a mesh with 10000 nodes, then made another with 13000 nodes, why would the finer one give me slightly different results to the other even if it appears like results converged? Also, ...
