meshing "mapped"
meshing "mapped"
(OP)
Hi every body,
i have a simple problem and I need your help.
I have a part with a simple shape: it consists of differents volume with cubic shape.
But when I want to mesh my body using "mapped" option, Ansys write an error; He tells me that my body can't be mesh with this option. I don't know why he tells me that.
can you help me?
thanks

It's strange because I can mapped my body using Workbench but when I want to mapped using Ansys classic, there is an error.

problem solved! You had one error: you have issued VADD instead of VGLUE. By VADD you are getting only 2 volumes with very complicated shapes.
Just an advice: VSWEEP is working much better then VMESH, when it comes to mapped mesh volumes.
See below.

I'm a new user of Ansys and there are a lot of commands and options. It's not very easy...
thanks again
