Subodh21 is on a distinguished road
Is it possible to model Underwater collision of two simple bodies e.g two spheres of same material.

I am interested in determining how the added mass and drag affect the collision.
The forces during collision on each body.
Is it possible to simulate in CFX?

If yes I would like to know the workflow for such a problem in workbench.

Thanks

If the bodies are rigid then you can do this with mesh motion and/or 6DOF solver with some CEL controlling the body motion.

If the bodies deform then you need to consider an FSI simulation.
