ANSYS Fluent is a CFD software that is particularly used for fluid flow modeling and heat transfer. Fluent was acquired by ANSYS Inc in 2006 for $299 million. The software has undergone various changes and improvements to cater to the needs of the industry. Enhanced ANSYS WB Meshing for Fluent via Workbench integrated access to powerful Fluent Meshing capabilities, including native Polyhedral meshing. Write Thermal Loads. Target Application: Electronics Desktop. This ACT will write thermal loads files. This can help pass temperatures from AEDT Icepak to Mechanical in Workbench. Sep 14, 2020 ANSYS Fluent is known for its power, simplicity and speed, which has helped make it a world leader in CFD software, both in academia and industry. (Redirected from Fluent, Inc.) Ansys, Inc. Is an American company based in Canonsburg, Pennsylvania. It develops and markets multiphysics engineering simulation software for product design, testing and operation and offers its products and services to customers worldwide. Ansys was founded in.

Fluent imports IGES, NASTRAN, STEP, Pro/E files as far as i remember. Try gambit for modeling in Fluent.

Export the file into IGES format. File Save as Change the file type to 'IGES (*.igs)' Click 'Options' Change the 'Surface representation/System preference' from 'Standard' to 'ANSYS' Click 'ok'.

Here i attach an file that i got on the web.

Good morning,

Ansys

I will offer other option, instead of Gambit. My suggestion is to used ANSYS Workbench or more better option Icem CFD which represent from my point of view the best tool for mesh dedicated to CFD study (in most special).

Keep in touch.

Ansys Fluent Tutorial

convert your file into neutral format and import it else
open your cad configuration in ansys than check it your solid works and other software is click on or not. if not than click on.

I am going to recommend something different than what some of the previous answers suggest. Additionally, I would be more focused on ANSYS, for a reason which will become evident shortly.

I am doing a counter-flow heat exchanger simulation in ANSYS student version.

After I setup, I always got error 'floating point exception' in calculation.

Please can somebody solve my problem?

Intialization result:

n

During calculation:

Error:

There are my all the details:

Details:

It is recirculated exhaust gas heat exchanger which used in gas turbine. It is 200mm long with 60mm diameter.

In my geometry, this heat exchanger consists of three parts, hot air fluid domain (outer domain) , 4 solid pipes and 4 inner fluid domain (2 methane and 2 air). As you can see, there are 8 interfaces in total.

Macbook pro a1286 recovery disk download. This is my meshing. I used adaptive sizing function to get less cells (119610 nodes and 326512 elements). And 4 edge sizing for pipes (20 Division hard). I don't use culvature size function because it will lead to 3300000 elements which I can't run it in student version.

This is my skewness data.

However, in my setup part. There are my setting.

Pressure-based

Absolute

Steady

Density on Y direction 9.81

Ansys Fluent 6.3

Energy Equation On

Viscous - Realizable k-e Scalable Wall Function

Materials are air, methane and steel Can a macbook air download a zip files.

Cell Zone Conditions.

I didn't coupled my interfaces in Mesh Interfaces.

In my Boundary Condition. There are 2 air mass- flow-inlet, 2 methane mass-flow-inlet, 1 hot mass-flow-inlet. And 5 pressure outlet in total.

All the wall material has been set to Steel.

If you need more details, please leave a comment.

Thank you very much!

    Hello Gordon,

    Here are some suggestions about your model: Candy crush saga free download for macbook pro.

    • Your mesh skewness is really high. Please try to maintain this value below 0.95.
    • Please try to use conformal mesh (rather than non-conformal). This will remove all your mesh interfaces and reduce your model complexity. You will have to perform 'share topology' in SpaceClaim. Here is an excellent video on how to.
    • Please make sure you have sufficient boundary layer mesh corresponding to y+ ~ 40, since you are using scalable wall functions.

    I hope this helps you overcome your convergence issues.

    Thanks.

  • Dear all,

    Today, I want to guide you through all the possibilities that could solve this problem, and, in the end, I will give a solution to this problem that will 99% will work with all the cases and solve all the problem related to this issue, especially in the dynamic mesh.

    First of all, you need to make sure these things:

    1-Your mesh is set to CFD, fluent and NOT mechanical

    2- Your mesh should have at least a good skewness and orthogonal array value

    3- you have unstructured mesh, with tringles arrangement

    4-your mesh should show all the bodies of your geometry without cuts

    5-If it did not initialize properly, reset the setting and do it again

    6- for transient application, take PISO as your method

    7- your timesteps must be less than 0.005

    Finally, the real setup that really can solve this problem in the dynamic mesh is to activate

    Implicit Update Settings

    'For transient problems, you can enable implicit mesh updating when you want to have the dynamic mesh updated during a time step (as opposed to just at the beginning of a time step). This capability is beneficial only for applications in which the mesh motion depends on the flow field (for example, cases that use the six DOF solver or involve fluid-structure interaction). For such applications, having the mesh motion updated within the time step based on the converging flow solution results in a stronger coupling between the flow solution and the mesh motion, and leads to a more robust solver run. Implicit mesh updating allows you to run simulations that otherwise could not be solved or would require an unreasonably small time step.' quoted from Ansys help center

    The main reason for this error is usually not the mesh that is not good enough, but the software cannot cope with the changing in the dynamic mesh, so the developers added this technique(Implicit Update Settings) to solve this problem.

    Thank you all .
