The pre-processor used in ANSYS Fluent is Workbench. It is a software package used to build and mesh dummies for Computational Fluid Dynamics.

Although it is a user’s personal choice of which software they would like to work with, there are features like 3D Imaging and Design Analysis which are present in ANSYS but not in Fusion 360.

ANSYS enables engineers to solve difficult structural problems by providing simulation software to test and analyze their design by comparing multiple design scenarios, helping with faster decision making.

Python is used in ANSYS to interact with some ANSYS products like AEDT, MAPDL, and others. PyAnsys is a group of python packages that are used for this purpose.
