Summary

In this tutorial, you modeled the transient flow of air through a nozzle. You learned how to generate a steady-state solution as an initial condition for the transient case, and how to set solution parameters for implicit time-stepping.

You also learned how to manage the file saving and graphical postprocessing for time-dependent flows, using file autosaving to automatically save solution information as the transient calculation proceeds.

Finally, you learned how to use ANSYS FLUENT's solution animation tool to create animations of transient data, and how to view the animations using the playback feature.
