  Hi everyone, I am an engineer student and an Ansys beginner. I would like to ask if it is possible to create a 3D mesh starting from the 2D version. I have done the following 2D mesh and now I'd like to have the 3D version. Can I rotate the 2D mesh around an axis ? If yes, how can I do? The mesh should be like the one in the second picture.
  Thanks a lot for any suggestions!

  As ANSYS Staff, we can not download attachments. Please upload images using upload image functionality. nYou can rotate 2d mesh to get 3d mesh in ICEM. nImport .msh or .cas file in ICEMnGo to Edit Mesh - Extrude Mesh. nUsing this command you can rotate 2d mesh to get 3d mesh. nPlease see help manual for more details about these commands. nRegards,nKeyurnGuidelines for Posting on Ansys Learning ForumnHow to access ANSYS help linksnn
