ANSYS CFD (CFX and FLUENT)

ANSYS CFD is a user-friendly, powerful software for the calculation of three-dimensional, frictional flows with heat transfer in complex geometries. ANSYS CFD (CFX and FLUENT) offers comprehensive physical models for

• laminar and turbulent flows
• incompressible and compressible fluids
• stationary and unsteady processes
• sub-, trans- and supersonic flows
• simultaneous calculation of stationary and moving components (rotor-stator interaction, moving mesh)
• multiphase flows, free surfaces
• heat and mass transfer, heat transfer
• radiation
• combustion, chemical reactions
• vaporisation, condensation
• fluid-structure interaction
• free convection and pollutant dispersion

ANSYS CFD is based on state-of-the-art solver technology (ANSYS CFX and ANSYS FLUENT) in combination with excellent pre- and post-processing. The software combines the advantages of structured and unstructured computational grids and is characterised by exact physical models, a robust solution procedure and efficient parallel processing.

The automatic mesh generation and the optimal connection to all common CAD systems allow easy handling of complex geometries. The graphical user interface and integration into the ANSYS Workbench simulation interface guarantee maximum user-friendliness. For the simulation of fluid-structure interaction, there is an integrated link to the ANSYS FE environment. ANSYS CFD software is available for Unix, Linux and Windows.
