Can you please open it in Workbench and then connect geometry to Meshing or Fluent with meshing. nAre you able to import that geometry in meshing? nRegards,nKeyurnGuidelines for Posting on Ansys Learning ForumnHow to access ANSYS help links

Please also search forum where you will get lot of posts about importing geometry.

Odd, have you configured the CAD readers? It's an option in Start-Ansys2020-CAD Confign

I would have assumed spaceclaim would automatically work with fluent?nif not there doesn't seem to be a Spaceclaim R2 2020 option in the CAD Confign

If it help, I get this messagebox whilst attempting to import geometry, directly from the workbench tab in Spaceclaimn
