Q. I am using the CFX-Post method to transfer heat fluxes to an ANSYS model. I have verified that the geometries match up correctly, but I am unable to see the ANSYS cdb surface after I import it. I get the following message:
"Warning - More than one patch with valid element types are defined in this file. Only the first valid patch will be used...Type,88, SURF152."
What has gone wrong?
A. CFX Post is expecting that the CDB file will contain one valid ET,#,152 command. WHen the CDB file is created, however, it will write all the ET commands that are in the ANSYS database. So you have most likely defined several sets of 152 elements, and perhaps have included only one of them in the CDB. You need to make sure that the element type of the elements actually in the CDB file corresponds to the first ET command in the CDB file.
It would be best if there were only one ET,#,152 command in the CDB file, and all the elements should be that element type number.
