Hi..Can anyone give the clarification for this question...
Can we do hypersonic flow analysis in CFX. If it's possible or we can do up to supersonic..........

CFX can model subsonic, transonic and supersonic flows. Most people associate hypersonics with velocities high enough to cause dissociation in the gas - CFX does not have built in models for this. However CFX can be extended with your own models and you may be able to develop a model for your application. If you do a web search you will find a few studies which have used CFX in hypersonics.
