hello,

While transferring my geometries from Spaceclaim via Workbench tab => ANSYS Transfer branch => AIM 2019 R3 I keep experiencing it that once my 'Named Selections' exceed a certain number, some of them are not transferred to AIM.

I didn't paid too much attention to that, usually I just recreate the selection sets within AIM, but this time this mailfunction 'hurts', since I am developing Spaceclaim-sript and AIM-journal based semi-automatic parametric CFD assessments.

Please find enclosed the archived SCDM file that as a basis abd a couple of screens. The problem is that the 'NS_N1' Named Selection (at least, I still haven't checked other ones at this point) is not transferred to AIM.

Please help me to avoid this mailfunction in the future.

Regards,

Csaba

Hello steelxpert

I am able to reproduce your issue. NS_N1 has not been transferred and some other Selection sets have some missing edges etc. 

I will need to consult my team on this. I will keep you updated as I hear from them.

hello Subashni

Thank you.

Please keep me updated.

Hello steelxpert

I'm discussing this issue with my team. I will get back to you with an update soon.

Hello steelxpert

Sorry for the delayed response.

I have been studying your model and I see that there seem to be some issues with the Geometry. 
You can use the 'Check Geometry' option by right-clicking on the component in the Structure tree or you can also use the 'Repair' tab tools to cross-check your geometry.

These errors in the geometry could have caused the issue. 

I deleted the solids as highlighted in the below image and recreated them and then I also recreated the selection sets NS_N1 and NS_N2.

 

This seems to have resolved the issue.

hello Subashni

Thank you for the answer. I managed to locate the problem, also to fix it myself.

The only concern still left, that all the elements of the spectral domain was created by a (recorded) sript (with thousand of lines of code) in a repeated manner, so it is not clear why these two solids are corrupted? Can you give me some hints?

hello Subashni

While the 'NS_N1' Named Selection definition is now transferred to AIM, but its content still corrupted, because the number of edges contained in the selection differs from SCDM.

It is also the case for 'NS_N2'.

NS_N1:

- SCDM: 7584 edges

- AIM: 2453 edges(!)

NS_N2:

- SCDM: 600 edges

- AIM: 9 edges(!!)

Thank you in advance for your help.

Regards,

Csaba

Hello steelxpert

Deleting and recreating the selection sets did not cause any issue for me.
Are you using a script to create the selection sets as well?

I have attached my model here for reference. 
Could you please make sure that no duplicate edges are selected?

Hello Subashni

I think your definition of NS_N1 and NS_N2 differs from my intended ones.

Yes the, creation of the named selections are alos based on my script.

Please find attached the basis faceted geometry and the recorded script.

Thank you for sharing the script. I will look into this and get back to you soon
