Hello,
I need to import a geometry file from surface evolver to ANSYS. I tried to import the geometry as a STL file. But it only create a surface body. For meshing we need solid body. Can anyone tell which formats of import file ANSYS recognize as solid body?

I think ANSYS Meshing doesn't have such limitation. But anyway you may try to get solids flom your surface body in DesignModeler.
