Workflow examples#
Fluent and mechanical heat transfer workflow for exhaust manifold#
This workflow demonstrates the typical solver setup involved in performing a CFD simulation for the conjugate heat transfer (CHT) analysis of an exhaust manifold using Ansys Fluent and followed by Thermo-Mechanical analysis using Ansys Mechanical.

Conjugate Heat Transfer Workflow for Exhaust Manifold

Thermo-mechanical assessment of representative exhaust manifold model
Geometry, mechanical and post-processing#
This workflow demonstrates how to create a printed circuit board (PCB) geometry, mesh, run steady state and transient thermal analysis, and post-process using DPF. The geometry generated is a simple PCB with multiple chips. The exported CAD file (PMDB format) is then imported inside Ansys Mechanical to run a steady-state thermal analysis followed by transient analysis.
Geometry and meshing workflow#
Below is an example of a geometry and meshing workflow using PyAnsys Geometry and PyPrimeMesh.
Geometry, meshing and fluids workflow#
Below is an example of a workflow that demonstrates how to create a geometry, mesh it, and run a fluid simulation using PyAnsys. The geometry generated is a NACA airfoil, which is prepared for a fluid simulation. The exported CAD file is then consumed by Ansys Fluent to run a compressible flow simulation over the airfoil.
