Go to Step 4: Model Setup

Go to all ANSYS Learning ModulesFor this simulation we will use a mapped face mesh. A mapped face mesh is that a mesh that can be mapped to a rectangular domain. The domain for this simulation is already rectangular, thus mapped faced meshing will yield a rectangular grid mesh. In order to implement the mapped face meshing, first (Click) Mesh, Image Removed. Next, (Click) Mesh Control > Mapped Face Meshing, as shown below.

Then, click on the rectangle and it should highlight green. If it does not highlight green, click on the face selection filter button, Image Removed,then click on the rectangle. Once the rectangle has been selected (Click) Apply in the "Details of Mapped Face Meshing" table as shown below.
