I am new to Ansys and I am still trying to learn everything I can, Would u please let me know why did you use Hexahedrons instead of just Automatic meshing(which is Trihedrons) ? Also what is the use of deciding of face sizing?

wierd thing is that I am obtaining 1303Psi for Max stress  YY but my equivalent stress is different than your specially the average is twice as high
