Exporting a mesh from Fidelity Pointwise to SCFlow: set the CAE solver to SCFlow, write the .gph file, drag it into SCFlowPre, and verify surface regions. Demo uses the CRM wing body. 👉 youtu.be/VoZC6bxqgZo #SCFlow #Pointwise

Full-vehicle LES at 178 MCV: Fidelity Charles on Toyota Motor Europe’s Aygo X, external aero and aeroacoustics. Per-GPU throughput matters: 8 B200s vs. 32 RTX PRO 6000s for a similar convergence time. Preliminary scaling data: community.cadence.com/cadenc…

L&T Construction used CFD in Cadence DataCenter Design Software to find airflow and temperature problems at the design stage and revise the cooling load before build. Watch how: cadence.com/en_US/home/multi…

Toyota HVAC vent noise, WMLES with Fidelity CharLES: under 6 hrs on 8 GPUs vs 60+ hrs on 512 CPUs, within 3 dBA of rig data from 1 to 5 kHz. The mesh: clipped Voronoi, ~30M cells in 4 min, no inflation layers. Learn more: community.cadence.com/cadenc…

Five physics-based parameters replaced dozens of geometric variables in a transonic compressor optimization. 75 Fidelity Turbo CFD cases, 3 operating points, and a surrogate that matched stage pressure ratio almost exactly. Read how: community.cadence.com/cadenc…

How to get a uniform T-Rex front in Fidelity Pointwise 2026.1: T-Rex tab, Advanced, Isotropic T-Rex Layers. We used 10 layers at growth rate 1 on an Onera M6 volume mesh. Quick tutorial: youtu.be/n7Nd06_ditQ #FidelityPointwise #BoundaryLayerMesh

8 NVIDIA B200 GPUs approach the convergence time of 32 RTX PRO 6000 Blackwell GPUs on a full-vehicle LES with Fidelity Charles. Toyota Aygo X, 178 MCV mesh, preliminary results. 👉 community.cadence.com/cadenc…

WMLES schedules are gated by meshing, not the solver. Clipped Voronoi grids take topology from the point cloud alone: no inflation layers, same mesh across teams. Toyota HVAC noise on Fidelity CharLES: 30M cells in 4 min, within 3 dBA. Learn more: community.cadence.com/cadenc…

Mesh quality checks start at the geometry. Two Fidelity Pointwise Tutorial Tuesday videos, one workflow: cycle selection views for CAD cleanup (slit loops, pinch points, quilts), then Examine for cell metrics: CAD: youtu.be/KcqXdAPxFUc Cells: youtu.be/yalUK-XdW8M

Find your worst cells fast. In Fidelity Pointwise, set a Max Included Angle threshold in Examine, then cycle only the flagged cells. Group Objects clusters neighbors: 7 cells, 5 groups. Video: youtu.be/yalUK-XdW8M

Three teams. Six runners each. One Cadence shirt. 🏃 Colleagues from both Belgian sites ran the Brussels Ekiden as one Cadence team on Saturday, cheering each other on from the first handoff to the last. So proud of you all! ❤️ #BrusselsEkiden #LifeAtCadence

GPU-accelerated SPH rain simulation on the Audi e-tron: Fidelity Flow coupled to the ANSA SPH solver, with a kinematic windscreen wiper model. See the full coupling setup in our next CadenceTECHTALK. Register: cadencedesign.registration.g…

Every slit loop and pinch point has to be found before you mesh. Cycle Selection Views in Fidelity Pointwise steps through each selected entity, zooms out between them, and re-centers your rotation point. Under 5 minutes: youtu.be/KcqXdAPxFUc

Slit loops, pinch points, tiny quilts: audit them one at a time instead of hunting through a cluttered CAD view. Cycle Selection Views in Fidelity Pointwise, this TutorialTuesday: youtu.be/KcqXdAPxFUc #meshing #FidelityPointwise

Can your CFD workflow handle rain? In our next CadenceTECHTALK we couple Fidelity Flow with the ANSA SPH solver for GPU-accelerated rain simulation on the Audi e-tron, including a kinematic windscreen wiper model. Register: cadencedesign.registration.g…

Fidelity Pointwise 2026.1.1 adds three controls in the refinement buffer panel: extension direction from a picked surface normal, reverse direction, and align to current view. Watch: youtu.be/zZTbqUvlOL4

Typed (0, 1, 0) for your buffer extension direction and watched it miss the geometry? Fidelity Pointwise 2026.1.1 adds three direction controls: pick a surface normal, reverse it, or align to view. Correct orientation in two clicks. Watch: youtu.be/zZTbqUvlOL4
