  Hello!
  
  We have been using the extension of "FSI_transient_v4.wbex" to map pressure from Fluent to Mechanical Application. The version of this extension is for WB 15.0. But our current version of Workbench has been updated to 19.1, and this extension is not applicable.
  
  Do you have newer version of this extension?
  
  Thanks!

  Maybe the extension is no longer required. Functions of popular extensions are integrated into the main program over time. See if simply linking the Solution of Fluent to the Setup of Transient Structural gives you want you need.
  
  In Mechanical, there is an Imported Load and a Pressure load is one of the items available.

  Hello,
  
  Thank you for the reply.
  
  Dynamic mesh is applied to the surface where the pressure is needed to be imported into Mechanical. Therefore, the mesh or XYZ coordinates associated with pressure are changing all the time. In this case, could we still use the method you mentioned above? Previously, if we use the extension, we will post-process the pressure data before importing into Mechanical to make it doable.
  
  Thank again.

  I don't build FSI models or use Dynamic mesh, so I can't answer the question.
  
  The ANSYS CFD experts are on holiday until 2020 so you will have to wait for them to return.
