Over a year ago ANSYS, Inc. purchased one of the leading CFD packages on the market: CFX. Our engineers have been very successfully using this tool for over a year now and have found it to be powerful, robust, flexible, and fast. In fact, the more we use it, the more pleased we are with its ability to solve real world problems. We have successfully used CFX to solve a variety of problems, from computer case cooling to vapor chamber characterization to aerospace heat transfer.

In our Seminar for September, PADT’s CFD analysts will be presenting a technical overview of CFX. We will focus on the following topics:

• What is CFX
• Technical advantages of CFX
• Example solutions
• Demonstration of typical problem setup, solution, and post-processing
• Using CFX with ANSYS for fluid-solid interaction problems
• Heat transfer with CFX
• Distributed solving
• Future integration of ANSYS and CFX, as well as CFX in the Workbench
• Meshing options for CFX
• Lessons learned by PADT for successful CFX usage

Anyone who does fluid flow analysis, or who is interested in doing this type of analysis, should attend this practical seminar. Our in house expert, Dr. Luis Rosales, will be available during and after the seminar to answer your specific application questions.
