Introduction to
Ansys ICEM CFD

Course Overview

The purpose of this course is to teach the basic tools and methods for generating meshes with Ansys ICEM CFD Tetra-Prism and HEXA. The course presents best-practice meshing techniques and the tools required to efficiently generate high-quality meshes based on tetrahedral / prismatic and hexahedral elements.

Prerequisites

  • Basic knowledge of geometry and meshing principles.

Teaching Method

Lectures and computer practical sessions to validate acquired knowledge. A training certificate is provided to all attendees who complete the course.

Learning Outcome

Following completion of this course, you will be able to:

  • Discover the ICEM CFD meshing interface
  • Clean and defeature your geometry
  • Create tetra/prism meshes
  • Create hexahedral meshes
  • Merge terta/prism and hexa meshes in ICEM CFD
  • Look to the Mesh metrics and statistics
  • Improve the mesh quality
