Solving FSI Applications Using Workbench

Duration: 2 Days
Cost: $1200
Description: The ANSYS CFX FSI course is a two-day advanced course covering modeling approaches for fluid-structure interaction applications using ANSYS CFX and ANSYS Mechanical. The course will cover mesh deformation in CFX and setup, solution and convergence of two-way FSI simulations. Alternative topics that can be covered include one-way FSI simulations, rigid body motion simulations and use of the immersed solid method in ANSYS CFX. Students should have experience running ANSYS CFX. Some prior experience using ANSYS Mechanical is recommended. The advanced fluid structure interaction modeling course also has several tutorials that the students can work through during class.
