  Hi guys!nI need to run a structural analysis of 3D wing using the pressure distribution on wing surface, calculated by Fluent. My question is: How to export the pressure distribution? Should I use relative or absolute pressure for structural analysis? nPs: I know that the problem may be easily resolve with one way FSI, connecting Fluent and Mechanical component together. But for now I don't have access to Fluent analysis system. Therefore I must use the exported pressure file and import into Mechanical through External Data component.n

  Use total relative pressure.n

  nCan I use the exported relative pressure directly or need to modify it?n

  If the coordinates are the same, you don't need to modify it. You might need to modify the location if the structure coordinate is different. n
