  Hello Everybody,
  I pray that you are well in this situation of COVID.This is my first post here.I have run a lot of simulation from tutorials.However I have not drawn a geometry in a larger dimension and scaled it.I wanted to know if I imported a geometry from Salome (although it is dimensionless but shows in "m" scale in Spaceclaim) and scaled it to return to mm scale or size will my results in Fluent be as if the diameter is 1mm(the real diameter) instead of for 1m?
  I want to input everything in SI units in Fluent instead of converting them to match my imported geometry model.

  Hello Whatever you do, please make sure that your mesh in Fluent shows the correct scale. This would be the most important thing.
  Load the mesh file in Fluent and use "Scale" to verify your domain extents.
