Ansys Fluent Native GPU Solver Capabilities

Rand Simulation presented an overview of Ansys Fluent GPU (graphics processing unit) solver capabilities on Wednesday, August 16. We covered a range of simulations -- from internal and external aerodynamics to subsonic and low supersonic -- providing a fair assessment of the newly added Fluent native GPU solver.

The end goal is to better understand how the native GPU solver performs in real-world applications when it makes sense to use it, and what are the potential benefits. Using real-world applications, we will learn:

• The benefits and limitations of Ansys Fluent Native GPU solver
• About simulation time and hardware cost difference between Native GPU and CPU solves
• The impact of the Native GPU technology in the industries that are adopting it
• What the GPU solver can do for you and the steps involved to make it happen
