I want to analyze heat transfer of a fixed volume chamber with special geometry and 2 phase fluid inside, I'm not sure if simscape fluids would help or if I should use something like ansys?

This really depends on the geometry and governing equations of the system.

Hi Eric,

You're correct in assessing that Simscape Fluids is not CFD. Depending on the nature of the heat transfer you're looking to model, it's possible that your application can be modeled with the 1D equations of Simscape Fluids. The equations used in each Fluids block are outlined in the documentation:

You may want to consider if the tank in the two-phase fluid library, Receiver Accumulator (2P), is suitable for your needs.

For a more advanced route, you can also design your own blocks and models with Simscape Language. You can find more information about creating custom components here:

HTH,
