  In case a gas pipe contains some water, I want to use an air compressor to pump air into the pipe and blow the water away. nCan this software simulate and find out the air pressure needed for blowing the water out?n

  Hello, nYes, you should be able to do this using Ansys Fluent. You will need to solve a Multiphase Model for this one (in particular - the Volume of Fluid). There are several examples on YouTube on this topic and watching these might get you started with your model. nKarthikn
