Which CFD package is being used by your company? There are many (costly) commercial packages available as on today namey Fluent, STAR-CD, GT-Power, Fire, Flo++, ICEM CFD, Icepack, CFX, etc.

I do not think there is any similarity between softwares used in structural analysis and those being used in CFD analysis?
