ANSYS ED 10.0

ANSYS ED is a student-level product for both academic and commercial users. It offers an affordable introduction to ANSYS, Inc.’s product capabilities for simulation and virtual prototyping, and includes many of the features available in the full commercial ANSYS Multiphysics and ANSYS LS-DYNA product combination.

Note that the ANSYS ED product is intended to solve relatively basic numerical analysis problems and has both geometry and numerical problem size limits (ANSYS ED is not suitable for commercial evaluation purposes where typically far larger numerical problem sizes are required).

Using ANSYS ED you can perform basic structural and thermal analyses, computational fluid dynamics (CFD), low and high frequency electromagnetics and optimization studies within a single product environment. Both our traditional ANSYS "PREP7" GUI and the ANSYS Workbench environment are provided (DesignModeler, Simulation & DesignXplorer), together with several mechanical CAD geometry interfaces.

The most popular use of the ANSYS ED product is by students who are learning numerical simulation methods. Many universities have developed their own tutorials intended to fit within the ANSYS ED problem size limits. We have provided several ANSYS ED example problems here. When you're ready to step up to even more simulation power, you can easily upgrade your ANSYS ED product to higher-level ANSYS applications. View our full range of ANSYS academic products.
