import geometry from Ansys Classic to Ansys Workbench?

[adilch]

Is there any way to import geometry from Ansys classic to Ansys Workbench? Actually I have APDL for modelling in Ansys Classic. How I can do it?

I'm slightly confused by your question. If you can import your geometry into ANSYS classic then I would guess its highly likely you can import this into workbench. What is the format of your geometry?

Hi, thanks for reply. Actually I have modeled a pressure hose in Ansys Classic by APDL commands. I want to get that model in Workbench also. How i Can do it?

Not sure it's possible. The other way round is more common (workbench to ANSYS).

You may be able to link your results file in ANSYS to an object within workbench, and therefore you'll need to solve the model again, but I've never tried this.

You should write your file as CDB format in Prep7-Archive model-write. then use the FE Modeller to read in CDB files.
