I have a University copy of Solidworks 2008. Its such an incredibly complex program. I've been trying to figure it out but you really need to spend a lot of time learning how to use it.

Solidworks has a program called FloWorks that its quite possibly the best CFD program i have ever played with. The challenge is making an accurate model to do the wind tunnel testing with.
