Streamlined Integration with System Coupling

System Coupling now has a "Thermal Desktop" participant type. Pick the DWG file directly in System Coupling instead of having to export an SCP file from Thermal Desktop.

Ansys Thermal Desktop
Axi-symmetric modeling

Axisymmetric models can now be meshed and solved with 2024 R2. Useful for secondary flows within turbomachines and other rotating equipment. 2D objects of rotation are fully compatible with 3D phenomena such as radiation, contact, and so on.

Faster Thermal Solutions

Performance improvements deliver up to 4X faster thermal solutions. 

Ansys Thermal Desktop
Beta feature: Participating media

Solid bodies can absorb solar or infrared energy based on distance traversed by the energy. This can be used to model thick glass optics or semi-opaque fluids.
