Step 11: Summary

In this tutorial, portions of ANSYS Workbench were used to compare the fluid flow through two slightly different geometries. ANSYS DesignModeler was used to create a mixing elbow geometry, ANSYS Meshing was used to create a computational mesh, ANSYS FLUENT was used to calculate the fluid flow throughout the geometry using the computational mesh, and ANSYS CFD-Post was used to analyze the results. In addition, the geometry was altered, a new mesh was generated, and a new solution was calculated. Finally, ANSYS Workbench was used to allow ANSYS CFD-Post to directly compare the results of both calculations at the same time.
