External Aerodynamics using ANSYS Fluent

Overview

This learning material addresses customers who want application-specific knowledge which is not normally contained in our introductory training materials and was developed specifically for aero-engineers that:

  • Want to improve the fidelity of current aerodynamic predictions (low-speed to supersonic)

  • Want to acquire knowledge on how to perform propeller performance simulations

  • Want hands-on aero-specific workshops for Fluent Meshing and the Watertight Workflow

Learning Outcome

  • Learn the basics of Fluent Meshing for watertight workflow method

  • Learn how to create relevant bodies of influence (BOIs) to control mesh resolution

  • Learn mesh requirements and methodology for predicting turbulence transition

  • Learn methodology for including propeller effects in external aero simulations

  • Experience end-to-end workshops focused on high-fidelity results with comparison to experimental data

Prerequisites

  • Spaceclaim

  • Introductory ANSYS Fluent Solver

Target Audience: Aero-engineers in the Aerospace and Defense industries

Teaching Method: Lectures and computer practical sessions to validate acquired knowledge. 

Learning Options: Training materials for this course are available with a Ansys Learning Hub Subscription.
