To get your model into fluent, you'll need to mesh it first. Usually in a program like Gambit, although others will work.

I've seen the Fluent manuals posted on some uni websites since it's a collection of html pages.

You should try making your own engine, then using the CFD to improve it, you will learn much more from this.
