Geometry

For this problem, we are going to import the geometry into ANSYS from a CAD package. Download the assembly here. Save the file somewhere convenient, like your desktop or your working directory.

To open the file in ANSYS, right click the Geometry tab in the Workbench. Select Import Geometry > Browse. Browse to the geometry location on your computer. If you do not see the file, make sure you are browsing for geometry files (the pull down menu at the bottom right of the browsing window for computers running Windows 7). Select the Geometry and click Open. This will import your geometry into ANSYS. Your project window should now look like the image below.
