Hi guys

I have a problem with the scaling between ICEM and CFX when I'm updating my project via the workbench in Ansys 18.2. The geometry is always 10 times larger than it should be.
For example: I'm meshing a cube 0.3x0.3x0.3m in ICEM. Then i transfer ist to CFX-Pre with the workbench. Now I change the geometry to 0.5x0.5x0.5m. If i update the projct in ICEM with the yellow lightning, the geometry in CFX has the correct dimensions (picture1). But when i close ICEM CFX wants to update the geometry (picture2) and now the cube has the wrong dimensions 5x5x5m (picture3). The same happens if I update the project directly over the workbench.
I've tried a lot of different thing to solve the problem (replay scripts, different units etc.), but it seems the the problem is caused by the workbench itself. Because if I save mit project in ICEM as a .CFX and import it manually in CFX it's perfectly fine.


Best regards
Borsti
