3.8. Reload Mesh Files Command

It is possible to import and manipulate many meshes within a CFX-Pre case. In some cases, this can result in a complex set of operations (for example, a single 'blade' mesh may have been imported, and then 30 copies may have been made). In some cases, it is desirable to swap this mesh for one that is much finer, or of better quality. The process of deleting all existing meshes, re-importing the new mesh and then applying the transformations again could be costly. Hence, the mesh reload function enables one or more mesh files to be replaced in a fraction of the time.

  1. Select File > Reload Mesh Files.

    The Reload Mesh Files dialog box appears.

  2. Select or clear the mesh files to replace the ones that were previously imported.

  3. Click OK.


Note:  This feature is not required (and is not available) in CFX-Pre launched from Ansys Workbench.
