Chapter 8: Forte Simulation in Workbench

Within Ansys Workbench, you can use the Forte tool to set up a workflow for Ansys Forte CFD. This approach mainly reduces the manual effort in preparing the geometry in Ansys DesignModeler and the surface mesh in Ansys Meshing. The transient volume meshes are handled during the simulation in Ansys Forte CFD. Additionally the workflow includes the basic setup for simulation with Ansys Forte CFD and post-processing in EnSight or CFD-Post. The workflow is customized for cold flow and combustion simulations. For combustion simulations, different approaches are applicable, with full-engine simulations and sector simulations using the automated mesh generation approach (AMG). Additionally sector geometries can be meshed with body fitted meshes using the FORTE Sector Mesh Generator (SMG).
