SpaceClaim stops sharing topology

[lespinom1600]

Hello, I am somewhat new to ansys:

I want to run a parametric analysis with this geometry, setting the angle of that middle part as the parameter

And when I try to change that angle (the parameter) it just stops sharing topology.

I changed the parameter in the group section.

Is there a way to keep that share? I am taking a course and they did this this way in 2020R2, and they don't have this problem. I don't know if it is a version problem.

Hi,

Does the middle part have a shared topology with other parts?

To address the issue of topology sharing stopping when you change the angle parameter in SpaceClaim, it's important to ensure that the parameter changes do not disrupt the geometry in a way that would break the shared topology.

Thanks,

Sorry for the delay.

The middle part is one solid with the other little pieces of cylinders. (See photo)

 

By rotating the middle part, the cylinders of Solid 2 do not change their diameter, thus not disrupting the geometry.

Please check while moving the middle-angled cylinder whether it hits the shared topology surfaces.

It's working fine, I was able to rotate the angled cylinder at an angle without losing the shared topology.

Thanks,

Deepak
