Download Ansys Student Software

Have a brilliant idea for a new product? Great! Then check in seconds how it behaves under stress. Change it quickly and test it again. This is how you save time in development today. In addition to the analysis tools for structure and fluid, thermal tests are also possible. The reading in and even the changing of models takes place on the basis of the proven Ansys SpaceClaim technology.

In addition to the analysis functions, the import of 3D CAD model data is possible, as well as modeling based on Ansys SpaceClaim. The following geometry import formats are supported: ACIS, AMF, Autodesk Inventor, CATIA V4, CATIA V5, CGR, Creo, DWG, DXF, ECAD, IDF, IGES, NX, OBJ, Parasolid, Rhino, SketchUp, Solid Edge, SolidWorks, STEP, STL, VDA-FS, VRML, XAML.

Ansys Discovery Student corresponds as far as possible to the full version in terms of operation. Only the export of geometries is not possible. Saving is always done in the Discovery format (*.scdoc). The software may only be used non-commercially according to the conditions for students. In terms of calculation depth, Ansys Discovery Student includes 128T nodes/elements for structural mechanics analyses and 512T cells/nodes for fluid dynamics. The following types of analysis can be performed directly:  

• Structural analysis
• CFD analysis
• Thermal analysis

With Ansys Student, you’re ready to create a wide-ranging analysis and understand multiphysics in the best possible way. Also included is the powerful 3D modeler SpaceClaim, which makes it easy to import and modify CAD models. Ansys Student thus offers students a unique analysis spectrum, which can even be extended and combined with Ansys LS-DYNA Student, Ansys Discovery Student and Ansys SCADE Student free of charge.

Included in the current Ansys Student Version 2021R1 are:

• Ansys Autodyn
• Ansys Chemkin-Pro
• Ansys CFD: Ansys CFX and Ansys Fluent
• Ansys DesignExplorer
• Ansys DesignModeler
• Ansys Forte
• Ansys Mechanical
• Ansys Meshing and Extended Meshing Ansys Multiphysics
• Ansys SpaceClaim
• Ansys Workbench

The following interfaces are available for importing CAD models and geometries:

• Neutral format import: IGES and STEP
• Parasolid (native within Ansys DesignModeler)

Ansys Student corresponds as far as possible to the full version in terms of operation. Only electromagnetic calculations are not included. In terms of calculation depth, Ansys Student includes 128T nodes/elements for structural mechanics analyses and 512T cells/nodes for fluid dynamics. The following physical forces and factors can be examined and optimized:

• Design Assessment
• Electric
• Explicit Dynamics
• Fluid Flow: CFX and Fluent
• Harmonic Response
• Linear Buckling
• Magnetostatic
• Modal
• Random Vibration
• Response Spectrum
• Rigid Dynamics
• Shape Optimization
• Static Structural
• Steady-State Thermal
• Thermal-Electric
• Transient Structural

Ansys LS-DYNA Student helps you to effectively simulate and reproduce very fast dynamic processes in physics. This includes drop tests and impact behavior. Highly non-linear tasks such as forming or joining can also be calculated. The software provides you with field-proven standard defaults with robust solver and model settings for easy operation using the LS-Run user interface.

Ansys LS-DYNA Student contains the following applications:

• Ansys LS-PrePost, the pre- and post-processor for FEM analysis
• Ansys LS-Run, the graphical user interface for optimal use of LS-DYNA

Ansys LS-DYNA Student corresponds as far as possible to the full version. Only the calculation depth is limited to 128T nodes/elements. The package includes solver and model settings for automotive, aerospace, compressible and incompressible fluids, shock waves, electromagnetics and more.

Ansys SCADE Student uses the unique Ansys code generation technology for safety-critical embedded software. It links design, simulation and code generation. The code is generated automatically and with a qualified/certified tool, the same applies to the generation of the documentation.

The customized version of Ansys SCADE Suite allows you to gain valuable experience in code generation for safety-critical applications.

Ansys SCADE Student includes the following applications and features:

• The SCADE Suite Modeler including the Editor, Rule Checker, and Simulator.
• The SCADE Suite C Code Generator

Ansys SCADE Student is a customized version of Ansys SCADE Suite. There are restrictions on the model size that can be used. The “Progress Metrics Information” is only delivered after saving. The SCADE Architect, Display, Test and Lifecycle modules are not included. The “Getting Started” instructions and the HTML5 documentation are already hardcoded in.
