  How to correct the moment center in Ansys fluent solver for 2-D analysis from (0,0,1) to (0,0,0) even though I have considered only x-y plane everywhere??

  That looks sensible: current the moment centre is at the origin and point out of the plane of the model.

  Yeah, the moment centre is pointing out of the plane of the model but that is the problem. I want the moment centre to be (0,0,0) since it is a 2-D simulation.
  
  How can I achieve it?

  There is no z-coordinate for the centre: it's hard coded to be zero as 2d must always be on the z=0 plane. That's why it's greyed out.

  But even though it is greyed out, it should not show z=1 as it is misleading!!
  
  So basically the moment centre is (0,0) only and not (0,0,1). Isn't it?

  Yes, with z greyed out.
