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.

I assume you have a STL file which you want to use for fluid analysis in Fluent. 

STL contanins all faceted data. For such files there are 2 approaches. 

  1. Use fault tolerant workflow in Fluent Meshing to generate mesh. Please check ANSYS Fluent: Fault Tolerant Meshing Workflow - YouTube
  2. Use reverse engineering in SpaceClaim to generate geometry from STL and then proceed to mesh that geometry. Please check Reverse Engineering with ANSYS SpaceClaim - YouTube
