The release of Autodesk Moldflow Insight 2014 enhances the 3D transient cool solver by increasing its functionality and versatility. This solver, known as Cool (FEM), supports conventional cooling and rapid heating and cooling processes on conformal cooling channels. (NASDAQ: ADSK) today announced more than 4,000 specialty contractors across all Autodesk. Load More Stories Tales from those who design and make. Autodesk is the company that makes software for people who make things. AutoCAD is one of the software subscriptions that Autodesk has developed and offers to designers around the globe. AutoCAD is computer-aided design (CAD) software that architects, engineers, and construction professionals rely on to create precise 2D and 3D drawings. Autodesk CFD 2021 Now Available! On December 8, 2020, the latest release of Autodesk CFD became available for subscribers! With the same powerful simulation tools as past releases, the Autodesk CFD 2021 developers identified the primary focus for this release is a focus on the users. Getting successful with Autodesk Data Management. We develop tools and apps, that makes it easy to deal with complex technologies in a simple way. Wouldn't it be great to automate tasks like PDF, DWG, DXF creation when files get released? Or enhance your checks on release and make sure that files get released just if.
The latest release of Autodesk CFD is now available for subscribers.
With the same simulation tools as past releases, the Autodesk CFD 2021 developers identified the primary focus for this release is a focus on the users. Direct feedback from computational fluid dynamics (CFD) users over the past two years through forum posts, technical support cases and general discussions with customers, has led to usability improvements and enhancements on the solvers and user interface.
Although the surface appears the same as the 2019 release, users may notice improved stability, usability and reliability of CFD simulations and results.
New dual-monitor support provides a multi-screen experience to expand the workspace. The 2021 version has improved overall stability, such as during the creation of multiple particle traces. Other user interface improvements include improved window and font sizing, and added tooltips for Solar Windows and Solar Walls. Meshing stability has also been improved to mitigate risk of failure related to extrusion meshing, seen in past releases.
There has been one general update to solving that should not affect most users. CFD introduced solving simulations using secure Cloud servers in the 2014 release (introduced as Autodesk Sim 360 Pro at the time). Although initially an exciting option for some users, the decision has been made to disable this feature in Autodesk CFD 2021.0, according to the company. Users will still be able to run remote simulations and use scalable solving through the use of their own servers/clusters; however, there will not be able to access Autodesk’s Cloud solver when launching the analysis in CFD Premium 2021.0 or CFD Ultimate 2021.0. If this change impacts your company, Autodesk recommends contacting your Autodesk sales or support representative.
