[Giuseppe Amato]

Good Evening to everyone and nice to meet you. My name is Giuseppe, from italy.

I'm an industrial engineering student and I'm still a begineer with Ansys.
I have a general question, I couldn't find this information in the official guidelines.
What algorithm is used on Ansys CFX to solve incompressible Navier-Stokes equations? [e.g simple, simplec, piso, pimple, etc.]
I was unable to find out in the official guidelines.

Thanks in Advance. 

Best regards ????

Hi Giuseppe,

CFX uses a coupled solver. For Pressure-Velocity Coupling, CFX uses the Rhie-Chow algorithm.
