Hello everyone,

does somebody know how to export the node values (contact pressure) of a contact region for a specific face of the full contact region in Ansys Workbench 2021 R1. Rerunning the simulation with differnent contact regions is not an option, because its a parametric study and multiple version should be examined.

Kind regards

Export the Pressure from the Contact Tool.  This will have the pressure on all nodes on all faces in the contact scope.

Select a specific face and create a Named Selection. Right click on that named selection and create a Nodal Named Selection.

Now you can use the Node list for the face to pull values out of the Pressure list.
