Is it possible to do a 2D simulation of an aerofolio with Acusolver?

    You will need to extrude the surface mesh to one volume element thick to run in AcuSolve.  There are a few tutorials in the AcuSolve Help system covering flow over airfoils, using various turbulence model approaches, with and without transition models.

    If you can start AcuConsole - go to Help > AcuSolve Help.

    I would assume it's the case, as it seems you should have access to AcuSolve.  Can you start AcuConsole?  I also noticed the student edition has a limit of 500,000 nodes in the AcuSolve mesh.
