Launch Design Modeler

In the geometry step, we specify the domain for our boundary value problem which is a rectangle. We'll do this in DesignModeler, the geometry engine in ANSYS Workbench. DesignModeler lets you create a geometry from scratch or import it from a CAD package. We'll do the former for our simple geometry. In order to start DesignModeler (Double Click) Geometry, Image Removed. Twiddle your thumbs for a bit. After DesignModeler opens, select meter as the desired length unit.

Proper Orientation

The sketching will be done in the XY plane, so (Click) XY Plane, Image Removed, then click on the face plane button, Image Removed.
