2022.1
Create, edit, and cleanup geometry.
Convert b-spline models to discrete models then clean up the geometry and mesh.
View new features for HyperWorks CFD 2022.1.
Learn the basics and discover the workspace.
Discover HyperWorks CFD functionality with interactive tutorials and community resources.
Create, open, import, and save models.
Create, organize and manage parts and subsystems.
Create and edit 2D parametric sketch geometry.
Use the Convert tool to tessellate b-spline geometry and convert to discrete geometry.
In CFD modeling, input parts can have topology issues, like free surfaces and self-intersections, and part assembly issues, such as parts with very close proximity and intersecting parts. Manually connecting these parts can be time consuming and require expertise in certain tools. The Wrap tool can generate a watertight manifold model from dirty input with considerably less manual work.
Use the Mesh to create new surface mesh on converted geometry.
Use the Fix tool to improve the quality of an FE (discrete/mesh) model.
Use the Edit tools to manually improve the quality of surface mesh elements and nodes.
Create new FE geometry out of existing FE geometry.
Review geometric errors in the model's surfaces and solids and fix any defects.
Explore the tools used to create geometry.
Explore the tools used to edit geometry.
Clean up problematic areas on geometry.
When performing cleanup or defining simulation parameters, it can be helpful to first find and isolate certain types of geometry. This will give you a better idea of the areas in the model you need to focus on.
Set up the simulation model, materials, domains, and boundaries.
Define radiation conditions and create emissivity models.
Define direct, derived, and constrained mesh motion.
Generate surface/volume mesh by defining mesh controls, or interactively create and edit 2D surface mesh.
Define output conditions, run the simulation, and view the results.
Use the Template Manager to define rule-based logic for groups, geometric operations, and setup and automate simulation processes.
Post-process the simulation results by creating visualizations and measurements.
