    AirShaper Online Aerodynamics Software

    N/AN/AAirShaper is an online platform to analyse & optimize the aerodynamics of 3D models. It features a fully automated workflow, allowing users without a background in simulations to understand and improve the airflow around their design. The main inputs required from the user are the velocity, orientation and required accuracy. The software runs in the cloud, which means no hardware or software is needed and simulations can be run in parallel. AirShaper also accepts non-watertight…

    The simulations obtained are very advanced, showing great results in the movement of fluids in the different states of which it is required to obtain an understanding of their movement dynamics. I obtained impressive and illustrative results of the thermodynamic properties that occur in said flow. Ansys CFX is an easy solution for doing multiple different types of analyses.

    Ansys
    • The GUI of Ansys CFX is pleasing to the eye and at the same time user friendly, making it a lot easier to identify the required fields.
    • The numerical scheme is based on Finite Volume Methods. It supports multi-phase flows with no mass transfer.
    • In the Ansys CFX, adaptive networking can be used for GGI interfaces and single domains without restricted physics.

    • One thing which I think they can do is provide flexibility to the user to modify the stuff inside the black box
    • Sometimes the errors can be confusing. The geometry of design and meshing is sometimes troublemaking.

    • The interface of Ansys CFX is much neater than Ansys Fluent. I found it much easier to define materials and boundaries in Ansys CFX. Also, this will allow me to get much more accurate results compared to a simples Thermal transient analysis
