Exporting deformed surface

      I have done the erosion analysis coupled with dynamic meshing. I could see the deformed/eroded surface in contour.

      I want to export that deformed/eroded surface from ansys in STL file format or any other standard CAD modelling format.

      Anyone help me on it?

      Hello, 

      you can export the xyz coordinates of your surface in ASCII format and convert these point cloud coordinates into a surface using a third party tool.

      To export the surface, go to Fluent File > Export > Solution Data. Select ASCII format and the corresponding surface.
