About

Ansys Mechanical is a best-in-class finite element solver with structural, thermal, acoustics, transient and nonlinear capabilities to improve your modeling. Ansys Mechanical enables you to solve complex structural engineering problems and make better, faster design decisions. With the finite element analysis (FEA) solvers available in the suite, you can customize and automate solutions for your structural mechanics problems and parameterize them to analyze multiple design scenarios. Ansys Mechanical is a dynamic tool that has a complete range of analysis tools. Ansys Mechanical offers a dynamic environment with a complete range of analysis tools, from preparing geometry for analysis to connecting additional physics for even greater fidelity. The intuitive and customizable user interface enables engineers of all levels to get answers fast and with confidence. Ansys Mechanical creates an integrated platform that uses finite element analysis (FEA) for structural analysis.

About

MEPFlow is browser-based mechanical design software for consulting engineers, mechanical designers, HVAC and plumbing professionals, and design-build contractors. It connects heating and cooling load calculations, ventilation and duct sizing, domestic-water and hydronic design, sanitary drainage, and underfloor heating in a shared floor-plan workspace. Users can organize building information, calculate room and system loads, lay out connected systems, size duct and pipe runs, and review calculation assumptions and results in one workflow. MEPFlow also provides public engineering calculators, including tools for pipe-water volume and hydronic flow, for standalone calculations without an account. The cloud application supports building-services design and early design-build planning, while calculated loads can inform subsequent system sizing. It focuses on mechanical system design rather than general-purpose CAD or BIM authoring.

Pros & Cons from Real Users

Pros

  • Nastran has a loyal following by structures engineers who have invested much time and effort into using it. Nastran is a generally accepted tool in stress. Ansys has aggressively developed its software and is now by far the largest company in simulation. Ansys can solve much larger problems using solids without reduction to 2D. Ansys is both easy to use and very powerful.

Cons

  • Nastran is outdated and lacks decent pre and post processing. Its unstable for large linear problems and for nonlinear problems. Using Ansys requires constantly fighting the status quo and inertia of Nastran users in stress.
