: The update extends these voxel capabilities to "hex-core" techniques, which can be imprinted onto symmetry planes, further automating the volume meshing process for complex structures.
: It is purely a preprocessing tool; it does not perform the actual flow simulations, meaning users must always integrate it with a separate solver. New Features in Pointwise V18.3: Voxel Mesher
: Users can now use point clouds for mesh adaptation, providing more flexibility when refining meshes based on external data. Performance Highlights pointwise-18-3-r1
: Later refinements within the V18.3 cycle (specifically R2) pushed surface meshing speeds up to 5x faster on benchmark grids through multi-threading and improved algorithms.
: The Glyph scripting language remains a powerful tool for automating repetitive tasks. Cons : : The update extends these voxel capabilities to
: It maintains strong support for major solvers like ANSYS FLUENT, STAR-CCM+ , and OpenFOAM. User Experience (Pros & Cons) Pros :
: This marquee feature allows for the generation of regular hexahedral cells to fill space between near-wall boundary layers and the far-field. This approach is often more efficient than unstructured tetrahedra and can improve flow solver convergence and accuracy. Performance Highlights : Later refinements within the V18
