Gabriel Caldeira Vicente 0 Report post Posted August 29, 2021 Hi, I'm having an issue about exporting a model to Ansys Fluent. When i export the model bellow as an IGES extension i finish having four different bodies in a montage, but i need to have all them together as a unique solid. In the end of the project i created a BRep with the four bodies but when i try to export it as my final design i have them separated (take a look in the attached imaged of mesh plug-in in Ansys Fluent). Is there any way, or maybe extension, that i can use to have a full and unique solid? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Mr. Bastian Ahlf 2 Report post Posted August 30, 2021 Hi, could you please provide more information how you created the Brep you want to export comprising the four single parts? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Gabriel Caldeira Vicente 0 Report post Posted August 30, 2021 Firstly i created half of the model and then duplicated each part of it with an opposite Image Surface. After that, i used the feature BRep to create the final design, so i added the right and left sides and a plane as my sources to cut in the second step the "tail" of the model. Now i used the operation "Solid from Intersections" to cut the "tail" and got the front part of the body. Finally, i added as source the other parts of the model (the legs) and used the operation "Close Planar Holes" to close the bottom of the "legs". After finished, the model i added a color ("fullbody") for it, selected the BRep and tried to export the model an IGES extension like the image attached bellow. Note: I created all the surfaces using the feature Coons Patch. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Mr. Bastian Ahlf 2 Report post Posted August 31, 2021 Hi, please try "boolean operations" within the brep creation after you added a source once. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
