  Please import STL in Flunet Meshing. You can use watertight workflow to generate volume mesh and then switch to Fluent solver.
  Please go through help manual for more details

  Hi Keyur,
  
  I tried that but Fluent meshing showed something like this. It does not support STL.
  Do you know anyway to counteract this?

  Quick workaround - open STL in SpaceClaim. Save .scdoc file. Import scdoc file in Fluent Meshing.
