It can be improve ----- ### "Ansys Discovery : A diferent persperctive of real simulation" — 5.0/5 > **Augusto** | *1 July 2022* | Mining & Metals | Recommendation rating: 10.0/10 > > **Pros**: I like the powerful and capabilities that are built into the software. > > **Cons**: I think the price is one of the cons when you come to chose a simulation software > > When I first got in touch with the student version of this software I knew that i was dealing with a software that can meet th expectations of how simulaion need to be done ----- ### "It's a good start, but there are a lot of opportunities for improvement." — 1.0/5 > **Ewen** | *15 December 2021* | Automotive | Recommendation rating: 0.0/10 > > **Pros**: With the proper and appropriate hardware, you can obtain a solution significantly faster than conventional solution methods by leveraging the power of GPUs, even older ones. For simple problems (i.e. single parts and/or basic external vehicle aerodynamics), it is very easy to set up. > > **Cons**: I'll give what I think are opportunities for improvements based on domain. Static structural - does not handle multiple parts/complex assemblies very well. Does not/cannot model non-linear contacts. Does not/cannot simulate non-linear materials. Defining and applying custom materials is sometimes quite cumbersome. Fluids - Cannot extract important engineering values from the fluid simulation, e.g. coefficient of drag/coefficient of lift from the external aerodynamics example. Cannot select other turbulence models. (Last I inquired, you can ONLY use the LES turbulence model, which is invalid for certain types/classes of analyses.) Cannot model air as an ideal gas (compressible flow solver). Cannot define point heat sources. Direct modelling/manipulation - if you have a part with defined dimensions (part from print), it is quite cumbersome to reproduce the part using the direct manipulation method. Direct manipulation method is great when you are trying to experiment with new designs and you are trying to figure out which design will work best, but if you are trying to test/verify an existing design and you don't have the original/source CAD part, which requires you to re-model it in Ansys Discovery Live/SpaceClaim, it's ridiculously complicated to create, for example, a dimension that is symmetrical/mirrored. Topology optimisation - Sometimes the result from the topology optimisation does not pass the FEA analysis. > > It's a good start. The very quick solution turn around using GPUs is definitely a benefit. But the limitations and clunkiness of the program makes it such that I can hardly use it ever (because my models requires a capability that Ansys Discovery Live currently does not or cannot offer). ----- ### "Ansys Discovery and Workbench" — 4.0/5 > **Tam** | *18 January 2025* | Telecommunications | Recommendation rating: 9.0/10 > > **Pros**: Ansys Discovery is very powerful for multi-physics simulation with intuitive user GUI. > > **Cons**: It’s a bit complex to bring simulation models from one tool to the others and loading quite slow. > > I mostly use it for thermal simulation, work nicely with Workbench. ----- ### "Ansys Discovery Review" — 5.0/5 > **Verified Reviewer** | *22 July 2023* | Computer Software | Recommendation rating: 10.0/10 > > **Pros**: Discovery offers us a fast, live, accurate early simulation. Discovery has a complete end-to-end workflow from modeling to refined simulation. > > **Cons**: It requires high-end hardware requirements in order to get a smooth experience ----- Page: 1 / 2\ Next: [Next page](https://www.getapp.sg/software/2051246/ansys-discovery?page=2) ## Links - [View on GetApp](https://www.getapp.sg/software/2051246/ansys-discovery) ## This page is available in the following languages | Locale | URL | | de | | | de-AT | | | en | | | en-AE | | | en-AU | | | en-CA | | | en-GB | | | en-IE | | | en-NZ | | | en-SG | | | en-ZA | | | fr | | | fr-BE | | | fr-CA | | ----- ## Structured Data
