Software developer Pointwise has released the latest version of its Pontwise computational fluid dynamics (CFD) meshing software.
Pointwise Version 17.1 R3 includes bug fixes and new capabilities, such as finer control over how cutting planes can be positioned within a volume mesh for examining mesh quality metrics and new native interfaces to CFD solvers.
“At the end of the day, mesh generation is all about running the CFD solver, and that’s why we continue to invest in native CFD solver interfaces,” John Chawner, president of Pontwise, said. “This latest release of Pointwise has a new interface to the DoD’s Kestrel CFD solver and an updated interface to the DoE’s Exodus II file standard. Of course, our CAE plugin API continues to provide all users with the ability to add their own solver export.”
