Is it possible to simulate a prototype of a Solar Heater?
Not just CFD analysis but the actual simulation using Ansys

because our goal is to compare the data such as temperature and flow rate that will be obtained from the actual prototype(in real life) and data from simulating the prototype? If it is possible, how do you simulate it in Ansys?

THis is our model created using SOLIDWORKS 2016

Yes. Open an account here https://support.ansys.com/portal/sit...CustomerPortal and start checking out tutorials and trainings. There are a bunch of them.
