Prometech Software, Inc. (President: Tsuyoshi Sumiya, Head Office: Tokyo, hereinafter Prometech) released “Particleworks for ANSYS 1.2”, an enhanced version of the interface product between Particleworks and the world-leading multiphysics simulation software Ansys, on July 1, 2020. Particleworks is a mesh-free liquid-flow simulation software based on the moving particle simulation (MPS) method, which is capable of complicated fluid simulations such as liquid dropping, mixing, lubrication, spraying, sloshing and splashing. Because of its easy-to-use operation and unique simulation capabilities, Particleworks has been introduced mainly in the automotive industry and other various fields including machinery, electronic, material, food, chemical, biomedical, energy, and civil engineering industries all over the world. Coupling such complicated liquid behaviors with other physical phenomena such as structure, heat, and airflow, it enables more realistic design verifications much closer to actual products’ behavior. There have been many inquiries related to complex physical phenomena through the coupled analysis of Particleworks and other CAE software, and it is expected that its utilization will spread further. Particleworks for ANSYS is an interface product for Ansys that complements the wide analysis area of Ansys and further expands the range of phenomena to be studied. This product allows you to use Particleworks on the Ansys Workbench environment. Combined with the simulation functions of Ansys, it enables coupled calculation with Ansys Mechanical such as structural deformation calculation and thermal calculation using the fluid pressure and heat transfer coefficient obtained by Particleworks. You can also use the airflow obtained by Ansys Fluent (CFD software), apply it to Particleworks, and run coupled calculation. The latest version of this product, Particleworks for ANSYS 1.2, supports the airflow obtained by transient calculation in addition to the airflow from steady-state calculation in Ansys Fluent. Here is a jet spray example.
You can accurately capture the movement of the sprayed water that changes over time with such coupled calculation. These operations are done on Ansys workbench with Particleworks for ANSYS 1.2 in an easy manner.

Prometech believes that the evaluation and understanding of fluid phenomena in the design and development phases will further accelerate with Particleworks for ANSYS 1.2 and that it will contribute to strengthening the competitiveness of its users. We will continue expanding and enhancing the functions of the interface between Particleworks and Ansys.

Dear Customers,
Thank you for your continued support. Our User Support Service will be unavailable from December 27th, 2019 to January 5th, 2020 due to a sequence of winter holidays. Prometech Software, Inc. (Head office: Tokyo, CEO: Fujisawa Toshimitsu, hereafter Prometech) and ANSYS, Inc. (Head office: Canonsburg, PA, President and CEO: Ajei Gopal, hereafter ANSYS) jointly announced their collaboration to bring more wide-ranging multiphysics simulation solutions to the market, during the Prometech Simulation Conference. The partnership enables users to perform multiphysics fluid phenomena calculations with Particleworks, while realizing improved interactive environments with ANSYS products. Prometech provides simulation solutions for large free surface flow and splashing/spraying flow with its unique mesh-free particle method known as the MPS (Moving Particle Simulation) Method. The coupling between Particleworks and ANSYS structural simulation solutions empower users to simulate complex multi-physics phenomena, whereas the coupling of Particleworks with ANSYS fluid simulation solution allows users to simulate realistic air-liquid phenomena. Embedding Particleworks in the ANSYS® Workbench™ environment enables key features, such as the calculation of structure deformation caused by fluid pressure and structure heat transfer by use of the heat transfer coefficient.  “The coupling solution between ANSYS and Particleworks will bring enormous benefits to many engineers in product design and development,” stated Dr. T. Fujisawa, founder and CEO, Prometech Software, Inc. “Particleworks is becoming a new standard meshfree CFD software which enables a wide range of engineers to employ CFD as an intuitive tool. While partnering with ANSYS provides a wider range of simulation approaches to coupled phenomena. I believe the user-friendly operability of coupled analysis using Particleworks on the ANSYS Workbench platform will bring a significant paradigm shift at the early design stage.” "There is considerable customer demand for modeling flows with significant free surface motion, including splashing and kneading. ANSYS collaborated with with Prometech Software Inc. to provide fast insights using Prometech’s advanced particle-based simulator available in Particleworks." said Dr. S. Subbiah, Vice President, Global Product Operations / Fluids Product Management at ANSYS, Inc. "Prometech has enabled coupling between Particleworks and ANSYS Fluent software and ANSYS Mechanical software to model coupled phenomena."
