Hi all
can I couple the cfx solver with Fluent solver to solve fluid flow problem?.

hi Far
I expect you to answer nor ask me an question!!!

does it illegal?

I do the legal things illegally, not the illegal things legally.

In my point of view, you can change some settings in Fluent or CFX, but cannot couple them. Like you are solving continuiy in Fleunt and momentum in CFX

this is impossible.

You might be able to couple them together with MPCCI. Look it up in google.

But why? Coupling adds an extra layer of complexity and another thing to converge. Do the entire simulation in one solver.
