The toolbox automatically subdivides the meshes, defines and sets up parallel case files, solves, and recombines the solutions completely seamlessly so that users can get the benefits of parallelization without every having to think about it. The only new change is that you can select the number of parallel processes to use (typically taken as the number of available CPU cores). Parallel CAE & Physics Simulations Made EasyĪs usual with FEATool and CFDTool, the complexities of setting up parallel is essentially completely automated. By splitting and distributing the work both larger and more complex simulation models can solved significantly faster. Parallel processing for physics and CAE simulations effectively means that models are split and subdivided into parts, which then are solved in parallel on the available CPU cores, after which the results are recombined. HELYX-OS, OpenFOAM, Docker and supporing tools are owned and licensed by their respective authors and owners.The FEATool Multiphysics™ version 1.14, and corresponding ™ 1.7, toolboxes are now available featuring built-in parallel processing support for the FEniCS FEA, and OpenFOAM and SU2 CFD solvers.įull support for solving fully coupled multiphysics and computational fluid dynamics (CFD) models with MPI solver parallelization in OpenFOAM, FEniCS, and SU2, is now available with both FEATool Multiphysics and CFDTool.

What things you need to install the software and how to install them These instructions will get you up and running on your local machine. Luckily Mac users can leverage X11 to work with HELYX-OS from a Linux container. HELYX-OS is developed and maintained by ENGYSĪs of now (Feb 2020) precompiled binaries for HELYX-OS are only available for Linux users. HELYX-OS is an open-source, powerful and user friendly GUI for OpenFOAM® CFD engine. A container that bundles HELYX-OS v2.4.0 and OpenFOAM 4.1 to be used on OSX via X11.
