Pre-Analysis & Start-Up

Open ANSYS Workbench

Now that we have the pre-calculations, we are ready to do a simulation in ANSYS Workbench! Open ANSYS Workbench by going to Start > ANSYS > Workbench. This will open the start up screen seen as seen below

To begin, we need to tell ANSYS what kind of simulation we are doing. If you look to the left of the start up window, you will see the Toolbox Window. Take a look through the different selections. We will be using FLUENT to complete the simulation. Load the Fluid Flow (FLUENT) box by dragging and dropping it into the Project Schematic.

Once you have loaded FLUENT into the project schematic, you are ready to create the geometry for the simulation.
