Linking Ansys Explicit Dynamics with Fluent

      Hi, I am looking at trying to define a certain region in my 2D explicit dynamic model that can be linked to the fluent solver as the mesh region in which a fluid is defined, the region is currently a hole which encloses an empty region and would in reality contain the fluid. This region will deform over time and I would like to have this region act similar to a dynamic mesh, so I can find the changes in temperature and pressure.

      I believe I would only need to define the initial fluid conditions and the equations to solve if I could have this be true, is this possible?

      Apologies in advance, I am not a proficient user of Ansys so it may be a stupid question.

      If you are trying to solve Fluent- Explicit dynamics co-simulation, then explicit dynamics is not a supported participant of System coupling. 
      You can refer Participant Support of System Coupling Capabilities (ansys.com) to know about supported participants. 

      And find example tutorials of co-simulation here: System Coupling Tutorials (ansys.com)
