What do you like best about Ansys Fluent?

Extremely advanced physics modeling capabilities. The results are extremely accurate. Great customer service from the company. It is easy to integrate with other software. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Ansys Fluent?

Requires rigorous training and understanding. Might take a long time to fully understand and be able to use it. Also, if you have an older file from the previous version, it might cause some issues. Takes up a lot of space. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you like best about Ansys Fluent?

The best part of anysy fluent is its result section in the fluent set up which is very useful in extracting the required results in both pictorial and graphicaly. If you know the tools it's like a video game Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Ansys Fluent?

According to me the downside is they don't explain the uses of all the tools in a detailed manner if anyone wants to learn by themselves it's very difficult only if they learn at any websites or courses then they can use it and for student version if they can increase the nodes permitted because it was a major drawback for my project but they accepted it Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

"Fluent review for 10+ years experience"
4/5
What do you like best about Ansys Fluent?

1. TUI interface and the automation it offers

2. Documentation available for almost all features of the Fluent solver - basic as well as advanced

3. Integration of TGrid meshing into Fluent - escp watertight workflow

4. Availability of wid resources in open forums due to the extremely large user base that Fluent solver has in CFD Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Ansys Fluent?

1. GUI interface of Fluent has been laggy and slow for years now, no improvement there

2. TUI commands are being changed for no apparent reason from version to version from the past few years,

3. Lack of proper documentation for Scheme language which is a very powerful fluent tool

Poor documentation of "Named expressions" - a recent powerful tool , documentation is better than scheme lang but still poor Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

"Ansys Fluent form the perspective of a student"
5/5
What do you like best about Ansys Fluent?

I love the different ways I can customize my mesh, as there are multiple options to fit various applications. The visuals that are presented upon completing any simulation are always a bonus, and out of all the CFD software that I have been able to use, nothing beats those of Ansys Fluent. One tiny detail I like is the live convergence lines that update with every iteration of the simulation, showing the user when the simulation has converged onto a final answer, allowing them to stop the simulation to save time and computing power should they wish to do so. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Ansys Fluent?

One major flaw, for me, is that you have to individually close and save individual modules once you are done with them, and they do not update unless you tell them to do so. For example, suppose I notice a small geometrical error and go back t change it. In that case, the mesh does not update automatically to accommodate such a change and outright refuses to generate, meaning that I have to redesign a new mesh, wasting a lot of time. Another flaw is the number of times the program has crashed while using it for more advanced simulations; I know this is due to my poor computing power. However, I feel like the developers should accommodate that as not everyone has the money to afford a "NASA Supercomputer." Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
