CFD modelling of turbulent flows

Ansys 2022 R1 Fluids Update

    Ansys 2022 R1 is now available – watch our recent update session with Prof. David Fletcher who discussed the new features of greatest interest to our customer base, including improvements in performance, usability, speed and model physics.

    How to Benefit from Decades of Experience in Turbulence Modelling

    David Fletcher from LEAP discusses the importance of the 3rd Turbulence Best Practices guide recently released by Florian Menter and his team at Ansys.
    This latest BPG documents the key best practices in RANS turbulence modelling, with comprehensive coverage of all widely-used 1-equation, 2-equation and Reynolds stress models.

    How to Use Expressions in Ansys Fluent (and convert from CEL)

    Summary of a recent webinar presented by Prof. David Fletcher on how to take advantage of the powerful python-based expression language now available in Ansys Fluent. Examples shown included the use of expressions starting from scratch, plus examples showing how to convert your existing CFX CEL into Fluent expressions.

    Helping EO/IR Sensors to accurately detect & track hypersonic vehicles

      Learn how recent developments in Ansys provide a new “optical CFD” workflow to help more accurately simulate the complex interactions between the flowfield and electromagnetic fields in the Electro-Optics / Infra-Red (EO/IR) range. This helps engineers to improve their simulations of flow field phenomena around fast-moving vehicles and improve the performance of EOIR sensor signals for tracking hypersonic vehicles.
