Before you can solve your problem, you need to first create a new simulation for the project.

File → New → Simulation

You can also open a new simulation by clicking the corresponding icon in the toolbar. In the resulting Add new item panel (similar to Figure 3.8: The Add new item Panel), specify the name of the new simulation and any comments, if desired, and click OK. Ansys Polyman will add a new item under Simulation(s) in the project tree. This branch will contain all the files related to this simulation, including the mesh file, data file, material data file(s), input file(s), and results file(s).

A simulation cannot contain more than one mesh file or data file, so you cannot store multiple mesh or data files in a single simulation. If you make any changes to the material properties, operating conditions, or numerical parameters in the data file, for example, you can either overwrite the original data file or create a new simulation.

In the project directory under Simulation, Ansys Polyman will create a directory with the name you specified for the new simulation. This directory contains the Inputs, MaterialData, and Outputs directory.
