Objectives

This training course covers the process of performing one-way and two-way FSI in Workbench between Fluent and ANSYS Mechanical.

It is intended for users with some experience using both Fluent andMechanical.

Course Objectives:

– Provide an understanding of the Workbench user interface, as related to FSIworkflows

– Learn the procedures for performing one and two-way structural FSI analyses,including steady state and transient, using co-simulation with System Coupling

– Learn the procedures for performing various one-way FSI analyses, includingthermal and structural, steady state and transient, for a variety of differentload types
