The web-based technology unlocks the power of cloud
computing for faster CFD simulations, reducing reliance on hardware
resources
/ Key Highlights
- Ansys Fluent Web user interface™ (UI) enables users to remotely
interact with simulations running on the cloud anywhere from any
device
- The interface supports large-scale parallelization of massive
computational fluid dynamics (CFD) simulations by tapping into
multi-GPU and cloud computing capabilities to reduce power
consumption and increase simulation speed by up to 10x
PITTSBURGH, Pa., Feb. 7, 2024
/PRNewswire/ -- Ansys (NASDAQ: ANSS) today announced Fluent
Web UI, a web-based technology that enables users to remotely
access simulations from any device. Fluent Web UI provides an
interface for Ansys Fluent™, an industry-leading CFD
solver with native GPUs that can speed time-to-result by almost
10x. Users are now able to run, control, and monitor simulations
on the cloud or on-premises high-performance computing
clusters. The streamlined interface delivers pervasive insights
significantly faster for a wide range of CFD applications,
including automotive under-hood heat transfer, gas turbine
simulations, and external aerodynamics for aerospace applications.
Building on Ansys' cloud initiatives, Fluent Web UI complements
other offerings to provide users with a comprehensive suite of
tools, from design to validation. For instance, Ansys
Discovery™ Burst relies on fast-scaling clusters of GPUs to
facilitate expansive, early design exploration that helps designers
identify optimal designs faster, reducing the need for physical
prototyping. Moreover, users can leverage the power of generative
artificial intelligence (AI) with the new Ansys SimAI™ tool to
rapidly explore additional designs within a given design envelope,
getting results within minutes. SimAI is a pure
software-as-a-service offering that supports an open ecosystem and
is approachable for users without deep learning expertise.
"Our ability to harness the power of Ansys Fluent native GPU
solver has saved us considerable time while using a fraction of the
typical hardware resources," said Francesco
Manara, aerodynamics specialist, Leonardo Helicopters "For
example, we wanted to assess the external aerodynamics for airframe
loads — a resource-intensive simulation — with the same reliability
as the traditional Ansys CPU solver. With the native GPU solver, we
ran our model 2.6 times faster using only one-third of the hardware
resources compared with the CPU solver."
"Our customers can leverage our native GPU solvers and AI
solutions in the cloud or on premise to realize significant
time-saving benefits across industry applications from automotive
to aerospace," said Shane Emswiler,
senior vice president of products at Ansys. "It's no secret that
CFD simulations can be incredibly time and resource-intensive, but
our customers are working against tight timelines that have little
room for error. The seamless connectivity that Fluent Web UI will
help keep complex projects on track, while empowering designers to
make better decisions as they monitor the simulation in real time
from any device."
