Upcoming GAMBIT Release

 

The next GAMBIT release, scheduled for Quarter 1, 2001, will have numerous enhancements. Here is just a small sample of what you can expect:

  • The solid modeling geometry kernel, IGES interface, and STEP interface have been upgraded to provide improved access to your CAD models.

  • Surface meshes and boundary layers are now smoother and of higher quality, even on highly twisted surfaces.

  • A new meshing tool combines the efficiency of Cartesian hexahedral meshes with the geometric flexibility and automation of unstructured tetrahedral meshes.

  • Support for our market leading FLUENT solver has been improved with faster and leaner mesh export.

  • GAMBIT's powerful command language has been extended with several new query functions, plus new capabilities that allow you to create your own buttons and forms to conveniently automate your parametric studies.

In addition, a new module for automated turbomachinery blade row modeling will become available in early 2001 (see p. S8 of the FOCUS ON CFD in the Turbomachinery Industries supplement). More details will be available on the GAMBIT area of our User Services Center as these releases near.
