Ansys

ANSYS simulation software, with its comprehensive Multiphysics capabilities, will be available at Illinois Tech. The campus-wide license, arranged by the Physics Department (Ali Khounsary) in a special cost agreement with ANSYS, provides free access to the software for all students, faculty, researchers, and their collaborators for teaching and educational research purposes.

ANSYS software is used to simulate and analyze a broad range of scientific, engineering, and design processes and includes many components such as:

• ANSYS Fluent, ANSYS CFX and ANSYS Polyflow for Computational Fluid Dynamics Simulations
• ANSYS Mechanical (and Mechanical APDL) for thermal and structural analysis
• ANSYS HFSS for high-frequency, electromagnetic simulation – antenna design, radar cross sections analysis, etc.
• ANSYS Maxwell for low-frequency, electromagnetic simulation – remote power transfer devices, electric drive simulation, etc.
