  Hello!
  
  Is there any way or is it possible for me to import my geometry which was created using ANSYS 19.1 to 18.2?

  Hello Don18,
  
  Backward compatibility is not available. However, you may try exporting the model in neutral file formats like stp, parasolid and import it in earlier versions.

  Yes, backward compatibility is not available.
  
  If you are using DM, then please export model using File --> Export. Please use parasolid (*x_t) format.
  
  if you are using SpaceClaim, then you can export mode in step or iges format.
  
  There are many other neutral formats. But these formats seem to be better than others.

  Yes,instead of importing the geometry only form 19.1 to 18.2, can I also import the model?

  I am not sure. Can you please make this as Is Solution for geometry and log a new question under Structural Mechanics category where you will get better response on ANSYS.
