Autodesk Simulation CFD has just recently switched over it's licensing to the Autodesk Licensing and Installation Framework in the 2012 release. The default installation does not have an option for deployments and therefore does not have an easy option for a 'Silent Installation'.
The Media and Entertainment team has had a workaround for this problem in older versions of the 2010/2011 products because there was no option for a deployment as well.
