Notations

Monte Carlo N-Particle database files can only be read into Ansys DesignModeler. They cannot be imported directly into the Ansys Mechanical application.

Monte Carlo N-Particle database files must be updated with the Generate option prior to proceeding with an analysis.

When importing an MCNP file, the solid body representing the outside world body is automatically hidden.
