Executable for cfx

daniellw · October 10, 2009, 11:11

I am new to cfx and I am trying to create an executable which could feed inputs design of axial flow pumps into cfx for cfx to solve . So far i can't seem to call ansys directly within matlab. I wonder if this is possible with any other programming languages like say c++ or c? Also is it possible to create/compile an executable which could feed inputs into cfx for it to generate a 3d model without using any cad tools?

Are you looking to feed the inputs in as just a run set up or as a dynamic link during solution. The first option can easily be done using perl/shell/batch scripts and the second can be done with user fortran.

Thanks for the reply. For the moment, I want to make it as a run setup for an experiment.

What i am trying to do is to to skip all the repeating routines of selecting new simulation > turbomachinery > machine type - pump, component def, etc and go straight to the solver and simulating the flow.

Is there any webpage or online helpfiles with a list of script commands for cfx11?

Look in the CFX documentation. You can run pretty much all the CFX suite from the command line using scripts so that should do what you want.
