Step 7: Solve!

Enter solution module:

Main Menu > Solution

Enter check in the Input window and press Enter.

Review the information in the /STATUS Command window. Close this window.

Click OK in Solve Current Load Step menu.

ANSYS performs the solution and a window should pop up saying "Solution is done!". Congratulations! Close the window.
