Welcome

• Welcome to the ANSYS Fluent Getting Started training course!

• This training course will teach you how to perform computational fluid
dynamics simulations (CFD) using the ANSYS Fluent Single-Window Task-
Based Workflow
• You will learn
▪ End-to-end meshing to solving to postprocessing workflow for CFD simulation in the single-window
ANSYS Fluent user environment
▪ Creation of high-quality CFD meshes with task-based meshing using the guided meshing workflow for
watertight CAD geometry
▪ CAD model creation, clean-up and preparation in ANSYS SpaceClaim

Goals of ANSYS Fluent Getting Started Training

• The goal of the training is to provide training to new users on how to use the single-
window Fluent workflow
• This workflow will cover the majority of ANSYS Fluent CFD simulation scenarios
• Some scenarios still require other ANSYS products
‐ Additional training classes are available to learn these scenarios and topics
