Export icem-cfd mesh to ansys

adam2008 · March 12, 2011, 13:11

Hi,
I generated a tets mesh in icem-cfd and try to export the mesh data to ansys for structural analysis purpose. I want to export as solid 92 type element. However, no matter what I do (changing setting in Edit Parameter), icem-cfd always exports solid 45 element or even exports only node coordinates without element information. What should I do? Can icem-cfd export tets mesh as solid 92 type element to Ansys? or can I do something in Ansys to convert it?

Thanks a lot

Push green square belong "Element Type" and choose "Solid Tetra 92".
