We have an exciting announcement about badges coming in May 2025. Until then, we will temporarily stop issuing new badges for course completions and certifications. However, all completions will be recorded and fulfilled after May 2025.

Hi,

Did you applied shared topology between the two surfaces? You can find more details on shared topology at user's guide: 3.8. Applying Share Topology (ansys.com)

I suggest you to create conformal mesh. A conformal mesh ensures that the nodes on both sides of the interface matches. With a non-conformal mesh, the nodes on one side of the interface does not match the nodes on the other side of the interface. The reason why conformal meshes is preferred over non-conformal meshes: with a conformal mesh there is no (or very little) interpolation at the interface which therefore reduces computational time and ensures higher accuracy of the solution.

Hope this helps you.
