What’s New: Simcenter 3D 2506

In this article, we will highlight the new features and enhancements introduced in Simcenter 3D 2506, designed to make modeling and simulation faster, more powerful, and more user-friendly.

Improved geometry selection

Selecting one face or edge will now allow you to quickly select similar faces/edges in your geometry, to greatly reduce the time required to select geometry.
A sensitivity slider will let you specify how strict the checks for similarity should be.

Improved 2D meshing

The new version brings several enhancements to the 2D meshers.

Paver improvements

The paver meshing method has been upgraded to provide a more structured mesh on narrow, four sided surfaces.

Cross Field meshing method

A new meshing method has also been added: the cross-field method. This will create a structured mesh consisting predominately of quadrilaterals, providing an optimal flow throughout the mesh. Any triangular elements are evenly distributed throughout the resulting mesh.

Mesh from boundary – Fill Gaps

In previous versions, to create a mesh from boundary where the boundary consisted of multiple loops, it was required to use multiple steps to fill the gaps.
Version 2506 has added a new method in the mesh from boundary function, that streamlines this process by filling gaps between closed loop boundaries in a single step.

Solution Specific Overrides

Within your simulation file, you can apply overrides to attributes from the FEM. In version 2506, you can now assign overrides to specific solutions. This ensures that each solution always runs with the correct settings. For example, when using different materials for each simulation.
