Hi everybody!

I'm attending the 3rd year of Chemical Engineering, and to get my degree, I have to take a 3 months-work that deals with Engineering. An engineering society (oil&gas) offers me a piece of work based on a simulation of a simple bi-phase separator (either oil/water, or gas/liquid).

I'm totally new to this kind of problems (CFD), but this fascinates me a lot.
I need to learn correctly how to use a software that solve this problem, and probably they will give me help in doing this.

But, we need to decide which software is better for doing this simulation, which is the best in correct results, user-friendly interface (for a beginner as me!), and what are the "pros and cons" of that software.

We have to choose between COMSOL, STAR-CD and maybe FLUENT (which is the most used in my university...).

Does anybody know to help me in doing the right choice?

Thank you everybody,

Davide.
