  Hello everyone,
  
  I am using ANSYS electronics desktop 2023 R2 for my icepak simulation. I am following the tutorials online to set up an internal fan as this piciture shows:
  In my simualtion I got the error messge from this fan:
  The fan is declared as 'internal' as long as I use the module in icepak.
  Thank you for anyone who takes a look and helps me.

    Sorry I don't know why I can't attached the image of error message, this is the word in the message :" fan3_1:An internal fan can not be of fixed flow type.."

  Hi Yin Fang,
  
  I'm not getting the same error. Kindly make sure that the fan is on the region's boundary. Another test that you could do it is to create a simpler model by just having the fan and region only. If the problem still persists, I would recommend filing a SR with Customer support so that we take a better look into it. Thanks!
