Hi Anthony:

Fluent might be easier to use if you are a beginner. I would suggest looking at a few Fluent start-to finish tutorials to get an idea of what to expect.  The tutorial below deals with radiation, which will be a factor in your case:

There are also a ton of Youtube videos online covering the different aspects of the Fluent heat transfer workflow:

The Fluent Help Documentation also has additional tutorials with downloadable files that you can work through to get used to Fluent.
