ANSYS, Inc. Release Notes
This section summarizes the new features in ANSYS TurboGrid Release 14.0.
The following is a list of new features and enhancements in ANSYS TurboGrid:
ATM meshes have been improved for cut-off blades.
The ATM method now supports splitter blades with the following limitations:
The main and splitter blades must have rounded leading edges and cut-off trailing edges.
The leading edge for the main blade is assumed to be positioned ahead (meridionally) of the splitter leading edge.
The trailing edges for both blades must be located at the same meridional position.
Due to enhancements to the ATM method, meshes produced in Release 14.0 will differ slightly from those produced in Release 13.0. It is recommended that you start “cleanly” (by selecting File > New Case in standalone mode), rather than loading an existing Release 13.0 case, in order to get the full benefit of these enhancements.
Robustness has been improved for the TurboSystem tools.
You can reduce the mesh size around five-edge vertices (which are a feature of ATM meshes). For details, see Five-Edge Vertex Mesh Size Reduction.
