The Files pane shows the files that are in the current project. The project files are updated constantly, and any "save" operation from the Ansys CFX components will save all files associated with the project.
Important: Although the Files pane reveals the data files that make up a project, you should not attempt to manipulate these files directly, as project data management will proceed unaware of your changes and with unpredictable results.
Ansys Workbench associates data with system cells. This data may be stored in different ways, including as part of the Ansys Workbench project file or as separate files. When files are generated, they appear in the Files pane. This pane can be used to identify which files are associated with each cell.
The table that follows associates cell types with file types and gives typical extensions for those file types.
