### 36.4.3. Mesh File

Click Browse to assign a mesh file to the selected component. The Import Mesh dialog box will appear requesting the filename, location, and file type. For some file types, the mesh units must be specified; this is indicated by the presence of a Mesh Units drop-down menu. If a mesh file has previously been specified, selecting a new mesh file will result in the original file being deleted and the new mesh being imported. In addition to this, the Reload Mesh Files feature is available in General mode that allows multiple mesh files to be replaced at once. For details, see Reload Mesh Files Command.

Note: The Reload Mesh Files feature is not required (and is not available) in CFX-Pre launched from ANSYS Workbench.

If you want to use a mesh volume that has already been imported as part of another component, do not specify a mesh file here and set Available Volumes > Volumes to the appropriate region.
