I am starting to use CFX 5.7 but i have a big problem: i don't have a program to do the modeling and meshing! Could you guys tell me what programs you are using.

CFX should come with a modelling and meshing package, mine did :

I tried CFX first, but found it to be a pretty crappy, albeit an extremely userfriendly, program.
The problem was untegration with products other than ansy's own.
I just couldn't be bothered to try and learn to use it properly, so I went for Gambit and Fluent instead. Or at least I'm trying to learn to use fluent, but using it requires a little more than just the few clicks of the mouse cfx does, so it could be said I'm still trying to learn.

I found fluent fair easier then CFX. Its well known in industry that CFX solver is very sluggish and not as small PC friendly as fluent
