Viewing Ansys Electronics Desktop Design Details

When you insert an Ansys Electronics Desktop design into a project, it is listed as the second node in the project tree. It is named Ansys Electronics DesktopModeln by default, where n represents the order in which the design was added to the project. Expand the design icon in the project tree to view all of the specific data about the model, including its boundary conditions and material assignments, and field solution and post-processing information.

The Ansys Electronics DesktopModeln node contains the following project details:

3D Components	Displays any 3D Components added to the design.
Model	Displays the model geometries in the design.
Contacts	For Mechanical–Thermal solutions only, displays user-defined thermal contact assigned between selected adjacent objects or faces.
Boundaries	Displays the boundaries assigned to a Mechanical design (for Modal, Steady-State Thermal, Transient Thermal, or Structural solutions). Available boundaries vary depending on the solution type.
Excitations	Displays the excitations assigned to a Mechanical design (for Steady-State Thermal, Transient Thermal, or Structural solutions). Available excitations vary depending on the solution type.
Analysis	Displays the solution setups for an Ansys Electronics Desktop design. A solution setup specifies how Ansys Electronics Desktop will compute the solution. Setups for Mechanical analyses vary by solution type: Solution Setup (Modal) Solution Setup (Thermal) Solution Setup (Structural)
Optimetrics	Displays any Optimetrics setups added to an Ansys Electronics Desktop design.
Results	Displays any post-processing reports that have been generated. Available results for Mechanical analyses vary by solution type: Results (Modal) Results (Thermal) Results (Structural)
Field Overlays	Displays fields, which are representations of basic or derived field quantities on surfaces or objects. Plot folders are listed under Field Overlays. These folders store the project's plots and can be customized. See Setting Field Plot Defaults for information on how to customize the plot folders.
Documentation	Displays files you have added as documentation.
Definitions	Displays definitions for Mechanical, including Components, Materials, and more (as applicable).

Note:

To edit a project's design details:

In the project tree, double-click the design setup icon that you want to edit.

A window appears with that setup's parameters, which you can then edit.
