    Hi 

     

    Pressure loads are always applied normal to surface irrespective of the feature. you can either select the element along the curved surface or if you are using 3D element then select the face and apply.

    this is for a 2D surface only structure, i knew how to add pressure to a surface in 3D case.

    but for 2D case, the pressure can be only applied to the edge line.....

    can you help me again?

    Hi dajeet

     

    You can apply pressure on an edge line as well. Change the selection to free edges and select the edge line.
