Ansys Fluent tutorial | Parametric analysis for mesh sensitivity (Grid resolution) | part 2/3

[@RamamohanRV]

Very useful, but there is a problem. How the geometry is transferred from SpaceCaim to Fluent Meshing is not clear. After creating the geometry in SpaceClaim, I am stuck. Can you help.

For geometry transfer from SpaceClaim to meshing you don't need to do anything Just close the SpaceClaim and open the Meshing module from project schematic. The geometry will automatically transfer from SpaceClaim to meshing. PS: It is not true if you are using SpaceClaim as stand alone

@@WaqasLearnTech It still does not work. When I open the meshing module by right clicking and click 'edit', it shows me errors. I am using 2024 R1 student edition. In the workbench at the beginning, there are three options to begin the exercise, like Fluid Flow (CFX), Fluid Flow (fluent with fluent mesh) and Fluid Flow (fluent). I chose the second one.

@@RamamohanRVFirst option is for CFX. I am not using it The 2nd and 3rd options both use fluent for simulation but 2nd options uses Fluent environment for meshing. The third option uses Ansys meshing module. This tutorial is for third option Fluid flow (fluent). Try with that. When you will close SpaceClaim you would see a "green tick" on the the right side of geometry tab. It indicates that this tab is updated and you can open the next tab. In second option Fluid flow (fluent with meshing), the geometry doesn't transfer automatically to next. You have to import the geometry after opening the meshing tab. You can see that in this video kzbin.info/www/bejne/ravaeJR4mN2grMU However, I didn't show how you can use parametric analysis using 2nd option. Maybe I'll do in my next video

@@WaqasLearnTech Yes, this worked. Thanks a lot. I actually want to do this mesh sensitivity analysis for a 3D model. Whether there is a separate video from you ? Any difference from 2D analysis shown in this video ?

@@RamamohanRV I don't have any video for 3D case. But there is no difference at all. You can select the mesh controlling parameter in the same way as for 2D. It will work exactly in the same way for 3D.
