We have an exciting announcement about badges coming in May 2025. Until then, we will temporarily stop issuing new badges for course completions and certifications. However, all completions will be recorded and fulfilled after May 2025.

Hi,


What version of ANSYS are you using ?


In this discussion, there is a screenshot of the compiler compatibility provided in the Ansys Installation Manual for different Ansys release and how to install Visual Studio : /forum/forums/topic/ansys-19-0-visual-studio-intel-parallel-studio-xe-version-required-for-upfs/. I followed this method and it had worked for me.


For writing your UDF, you can either use Visual Studio directly or write it in the Editor of Windows (txt file-format) and change the format with .c instead of .txt. Then you can compile or interpret the UDF in Fluent.


Regards,


Maxime
