<p>Hello<\/p><p>I have set up my project in workbench where I create the geometry in Discovery and transfer it to two ICEM components for two separate meshes (solid and fluid) that are then transferred to Fluent where I do the interfaces to combine the meshes. I am unable to update the mesh in Fluent everytime I change something in the Mesh in one of the ICEM components. The changes are not in surface names and merely just the number of nodes on an edge. Fluent fails to recognize the updated mesh and the setup usually crashes after prompts of unidentified surface. <\/p><p>What I would also like to do is to keep the previous versions of the mesh in the project space and simply duplicate components and make changes to the duplicates for a refined version. This does not work as well. Is there a correct way to do this or is it just a bad integration altogether? Attached picture shows what I mean.
