      i have created a tetramesh with pyramid elements on the outer face so that they can be used as a transitions elements. 

      The elements looked fine in hypermesh but when i imported them in the ansys i cannot see the pyramid elements.please look at the below images.

               

      Please help me through this.

      Thankyou.

      Hi

      See if the elements you have and try to import are supported:

      https://ansyshelp.ansys.com/account/secured?returnurl=/Views/Secured/corp/v232/en/wb_sim/ds_cdb_el_types.html

      (very likely they are not supported)

      See here how to see the link above (if it does not work for you):

      All the best

        Hi Erik thanks for the quick reply, still i need to know how to use pyramid elements in ansys, its confusing. the link is asking the customer number which i dont have.

        is there setting/ adjustments that is possible with imported pyramid mesh. 

        or What should i use instead of pyramid elements.

        Thankyou.
