Geometry

Note

For users of ANSYS 15.0, please check this link for procedures for turning on the Auto Constraint feature before creating sketches in DesignModeler.

Saving

It would be of best interest, to save the project at this point. Click on the "Save As.." button, Image Removed, which is located on the top of the Workbench Project Page . Save the project as "FlatPlateFlow" in your working directory. When you save in ANSYS a file and a folder will be created. For instance if you save as "FlatPlateFlow", a "FlatPlateFlow" file and a folder called "FlatPlateFlow_files" will appear. In order to reopen the ANSYS files in the future you will need both the ".wbpj" file and the folder. If you do not have BOTH, you will NOT be able to access your project.
