blin New Member Join Date: Dec 2009 Posts: 10 Rep Power: 16	Hi all, My company is in the selection of a CFD program that is on the lower end of the spectrum cost wise (so ANSYS, and CD-Adapco are out). We will be performing external aerodynamics only, something with k-e or spalart-allmaras modeling is preferred. We are looking for a software that will be a good supplement to the design process, preferably with a built in pre-processor. We are looking at CFDesign, FlowEFD, FloWorks, Flow3D, NUMECA, Phoenics and OpenFOAM but don't know what are the advantages/disadvantages of each. More suggestions to software options are welcomed too. Any suggestions?
