What is Ansys Fluent?

Ansys Fluent is the industry leading computational fluid dynamics, or CFD software, renowned for its advanced physics modeling capabilities and outstanding accuracy. As a general-purpose CFD software, Fluent can be used to model fluid flow, heat and mass transfer, chemical reactions, and more. Fluent offers a modern, user-friendly interface that streamlines the CFD process from pre- to post-processing within a single window workflow. Fluent is known for its advanced physics modeling capabilities, which include turbulence modeling, single and multiphase flows, combustion, battery modeling, fluid-structure interaction, and much more. Also known for its efficient HPC scaling, large models can easily be solved in Fluent on multiple processors on either CPU or GPU. Multiple solver options are available, including pressure-based and density-based CPU solvers to cover low-speed to hypersonic flows and a pressure-based native GPU solver.

What do you like best about Ansys Fluent?

This software is very complete and in terms of fluid simulation it helps me with each step-by-step design of parameters, simulation, initiation, what is best for this software is that it can simulate Macro systems, which is a huge advantage, so that its interface is very robust. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Ansys Fluent?

The only difficulty that I find is that it is not easy to use and for beginners it is very difficult to teach them how to use it since it is usually tedious, but for the rest it complies with everything it offers. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Recommendations to others considering Ansys Fluent:

I really recommend this software especially to students since they should start using this software from its educational beginnings so that when it comes to being in the industry it is much easier to use Ansys Fuent. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What problems is Ansys Fluent solving and how is that benefiting you?

The best thing about this software is that it allows me to apply thermal and fluid analysis to process equipment, in my case I have to apply it to a heat exchanger, I can also obtain a FEM analysis for part homologation and thus have the correct standard. I like the final graph of the simulation since it is easy to obtain and looks good, I consider that this software has a very robust interface, but there are different videos on the net that serve to learn how it works.
