Dear Everybody..

What about ANSYS CFX Version 12.0

when will it be releasing?

Hi,

I believe before the end of the year.

Glenn Horrocks

does Anyone know about the new features and capacities of new version? Will we alvbe to make a 2D simulation for student purposes, eg?

I'm pretty sure that 2D simulations will still be done by creating a 1 element thick 3D simulation. Since CFX is a 3d code, it would take an entire rewrite of the code to make it 2d as well.

I don´t think so! ´cause, when u have a quase-2D simulation (or 3D simulation), we have a different formulation of conservation equations comparing to a real 2D formulation. When u work with vorticity-stream formulation, instead of primitive variables, working with 2D simulation, u have different equations for vorticity, eg...

I´ve already known about it, but thanks for your contribution

maybe ansys inc. could add more schemes for diffusive terms, and not only use a linear scheme and also add a possibility to put more points of integration when u use a kind of element, for example, hexahedrical element. I wanted to compare the results in modifying this schemes for diffusive terms when i´m studying my heat conducting problems (without fluid flow, as air or water, eg).

No chance.

You do have the choice of a few diffusion interpolating schemes. But high order elements - no chance.

The list of stuff which is coming with CFX V12 is on the CFX-Community website so no need to speculate.

Glenn,

Whereabouts is the list in the website? Are you talking about the Customer Portal, as I cannot find it. Thanks.

Hi,

I can't seem to find it now. Can't remember where it is - ask your support person.

Glenn Horrocks

My last information is, that it will be beginning of next near.

Sorry, no 2D like you are expecting.

Does anyone have CFX 12.0 help file. So that I could do the analysis of the gear pump...
Or any online resource...

Hi,

Ansys CFX v12 is yet available.

I found a document about what is new in this version:

Have you tried talking to your CFX support person?
