  Hi! I need to use Refrigerant R1234ze as my fluid on my simulation but the problem is I cannot find this fluid on my ansys 2023 R1 student version, is there any way to add this liquid on my ansys?

  Hello,
  
  If the material you want to use is not available in the database and If you know the material properties, you can easily create a new material for the local list (for that case). Additionally you can create and maintain your own user-defined materials database, which can come handy while working with different case files.
  
  For more details, check these links out:
  8.1. Defining Materials (ansys.com)
  46.5. Materials Task Page (ansys.com)

  Thanks!
