October 2004 (July 2004)Latest CFX-5 Leverages More ANSYS TechnologyCFD toolset CFX-5.7 offers further integration into the ANSYS family of analysistechnologies, according to ANSYS, Inc. (Canonsburg, PA). Because oftighter integration, version 5.7 provides better performance, enhanced interoperabilitywith other ANSYS tools, and more accessible complex physics and multiphase simulations.CFX-5.7 also includes extensions in physical models, such as new Lagrangian coaland droplet combustion models and new turbulence models that predict laminar toturbulent transition. It includes either ANSYS DesignModeler for geometry creationor CAD import along with a special version of ANSYS ICEM CFD for robust meshingcapability when applied to industrial CAD models.CFX-5.7 introduces a fluid structure interaction (FSI) capability. A simple,one-way transfer of data from a CFX solution to ANSYS enables 5.7 to pass informationbetween a fluid and structural simulation. CFX 5.7 interacts dynamically withANSYS stress analysis for complex interactions requiring bidirectional effects.CFX-5.7 from ANSYS received the most Reader Service responses in our July 2004 issue.
