Ansys (Synopsys)
CFX
Ansys CFX supports CFD workflows for turbomachinery and general fluid-flow analysis.
On the software discovery list. Connector development and release dates have not been announced.
Workflow ideas
Prepare rotating domains
Use the fluid domain, geometry cleanup and meshing intent. In the intended CFX preview, prepare rotating domains; the visible result is a domain view with regions, interfaces and mesh controls exposed. Review watertightness, scale, near-wall treatment and cell quality before accepting or exporting it.
Configure flow interfaces
Start from the selected fluids, boundaries and physics models. In the intended CFX preview, configure flow interfaces; the visible result is a configured case with inlet, outlet, wall and solver settings visible. Review physical assumptions, reference values and convergence monitors before accepting or exporting it.
Review performance and convergence
Begin with the result fields, monitor history and balance reports. In the intended CFX preview, review performance and convergence; the visible result is contours and performance quantities tied to the solved domain. Review residuals, conservation, mesh sensitivity and expected flow behaviour before accepting or exporting it.
