Workflow Improvements for Compressors, Pumps, and Fluid Structural Interaction (FSI) Applications

Users can now automatically minimize the flow leakage across small gaps for compressor and pump applications to improve accuracy and realism. Automation is also available to determine the surface proximity to better identify and eventually model the gap regions.
