[DesignModeler] Workbench problem with geometry and mesh files

jwillie2000 · March 14, 2012, 11:56

Hi All,

I am using ansys workbench 13 on windows and when i do the geometry and the mesh and move on to do the setup for the CFD in Fluent, the geometry and mesh files just go missing from the folder. It has happened twice now and i am wondering why. For the first few days i used the software this did not happen. But now it seems to be repeating itself. Just wanted to know if anyone had had a similar problem in the past.

Thanks in advance!

Jimmy

It's very strange. Duplicate your project before you do your setup or just re-install your software.

until you find a fix to your problem have you try export from ansys meshing ?? get a independent mesh files that you store in desktop and open an independent fluent...
