  Hi,
  
  I couldn't find out how to plot surface pressure distribution during post processing on Ansys mechanical? I can see temp. distribution using BFE with user defined results. Anyway to see pressure distribution??

  If you have Frictional or Frictionless or Rough Contact, then you can insert a Contact Tool into the Results and then Insert a Pressure plot into the Contact Tool.

  Hi Peter,
  
  I actually asked for the surface pressure that we mapped on a surface before the analysis. With BFE, for example, we can probe the temperature which we mapped on a body on various locations, during post-processing. Can we do the same for surface pressure?

  I am also interested in a solution for this. Is there really no way to visuallize the applied pressure boundary condtions?
