Ansys don’t allow to select a mesh element do apply pressure

      Hi everyone!

      I'm a ANSYS beginner and I'm trying to apply a presure in a mesh element, but the geometry is not recognizing the element selected. Anyone here already faced this problem?

      Did you start with geometry and meshed that?  If so, you would apply the pressure to the geometry.

      Hello luandersoncosta,

      As peter suggested you need to apply on geometry.

      You can activate face selector in top ribbon and choose faces you need to apply for pressure.

      Thanks
