Hello,

I am running transient Fluent simulations on an HPC system and intend to use the results for a one-way FSI. My plan was to import the case and data files into Fluent within Workbench and then link this setup to a Transient Structural system. However, I’m encountering issues when trying to import all the data into the Fluent GUI.

Does anyone know how to resolve this issue or if there is an alternative way to extract the mechanical loads from the transient simulation? I’ve read that it’s possible to export Mechanical APDL input files, but I’m unsure how to use them in Mechanical. Any guidance would be greatly appreciated.

Thank you in advance!

Best regards,
Enzo

Hello 
As you solved your Fluent Solution on HPC, please try running Fluent solver for atleast single iteration after importing it in WB Fluent and then you'll see the CFD surfaces available for consumption.

Hope this helps!
