6. Generate mesh
One nice feature of the ANSYS program is that you can automat-
ically mesh the model without specifying any mesh size controls.
This is using what is called a default mesh. If you’re not sure how
to determine the mesh density, let ANSYS try it first. Instead you
will specify a global element size to control overall mesh density.
