CFX Product Strategy

• Continued development of advanced, best-in-class core technologies– CFX is absolutely major league CFD

• Part of ANSYS Integrated CAE Strategy– CFX products and technologies integrating into ANSYS

Workbench

• Customer benefits from:– Leading robustness/speed/accuracy for CFD solution– CAE interoperability with other Workbench tools and

physics – major differentiator

CFX Roadmap Summary

• CFX-5– CFX-5.7 current major release – Q2 2004– CFX-5.7.1 – first integration into Workbench– CFX-5.8 – next major release – Q2 2005

• CFX-Mesh– CFX-Mesh 8.1 – first integration into Workbench– CFX-Mesh 9.0 – major improvements– CFX-Mesh will continue to be closer integrated into Workbench with each

successive release

• Turbo Products not covered:– CFX-TurboGrid– CFX-BladeGen

6-59.0 New Features

CFX-in-Workbench

• CFX-Mesh is already in Workbench– Provides integrated CAD/geometry/meshing environment

• The 3 major modules of CFX-5 – CFX-Pre, Solver, CFX-Post – are now also integrated as Tabs– CFX-5.7.1 is bug-fixed and “GUI harmonized” 5.7– Full project page support for files and launching– Single install– Shows up as the “Advanced CFD Application”

• First time for complete, general-purpose CFD solution in one environment– CAD/geometry/meshing/physics/solution/post all together

Positioning of CFX-Mesh

• Incorporated natively into ANSYS Workbench• Tuned to produce as optimal as possible meshes for CFX-5• Tightly coupled with DesignModeler

• For easy-to-use, high-quality CFD mesh generation – Heavily defaulted inputs; very automated sensitivity to geometric

detail – few user inputs required– Produces orthogonal and smooth near-wall prism region for boundary

layer resolution

• (Should use ICEM CFD when:– Have very large number of geometric surfaces, or have significantly

faulty CAD– Need to do manual mesh editing– Need 3D blocked Hexahedral elements)

treated as in individual surface • Virtual edge

– A virtual edge is a combination of edges that will be treated as in individual surface
