Ansys Fluent gives you more time to innovate and optimize product performance. Trust your simulation results with a software that has been extensively validated across a wide range of applications. With Ansys Fluent, you can create advanced physics models and analyze a variety of fluids phenomena—all in a customizable and intuitive space.

New enhancements to the GPU solver in 2024 R1 include new models and physics capabilities, including support for the Coupled Solver, non-conformal interfaces, sliding mesh, combustion with detailed and stiff chemistry, enhanced solution monitors and more.

New modeling and physics enhancements include the stiff chemistry solver and the eddy dissipation concept model compatibility with the adjoint solver, 10-20% speed-up for conjugate heat transfer (CHT) calculations for applications with high solid-to-fluid mesh count ratios, and discrete phase modeling for multi-phase flows, coupling, and radiation sources.

A new Fluent web-based UI that allows users to access their simulations remotely via a web browser is now available. The web UI is a modern yet familiar interface that enables users to start, stop, and pause solver jobs to evaluate real-time results as calculations run. Available for solution controls, monitoring, and post-processing. 

Aerospace application updates include accuracy improvements to the two-temperature equation model for high-speed flight regimes that now match better with measured data. The Virtual Blade Model (VBM), widely used for rotorcraft and urban air mobility applications, now includes additional outputs, including Xp-force and Yp-force.

PyFluent updates include an improved workflow interface for a cleaner and more efficient programming style, new API availability to access and modify volumetric solution data, and usability improvements of field-data APIs with a purpose-designed interface for more straightforward interpretation.

Turbulence model tuning with AI/ML is now available. The adjoint solver and AI/ML calibrate GEKO coefficients against a high-fidelity LES solution, yielding LES-level accuracy at the cost of RANS.
