From comprehensive two-phase flow capabilities to advanced finite element analysis, our world-class software is a critical tool for any thermal or fluids engineer.
Ansys Thermal Desktop includes all aspects of thermal model creation, including built-in finite difference, finite element, and lumped capacitance objects that can be combined into any configuration to solve complex thermal and fluid flow problems. With Thermal Desktop, users across a range of industries can build virtual prototypes to design more robust products, ranging from automotive components to manned spacecrafts.
Thermal Desktop enables concurrent engineering for thermal and fluid analysts by providing full access to CAD-based geometry as well as data exchange to and from structural codes without compromising traditional thermal modeling practices.
For Ansys 2025 R1, new enhancements to Ansys Thermal Desktop include the Thermal Desktop Launcher, Ansys ModelCenter integration, and a Thermal Desktop node available in Ansys optiSLang as a beta feature. .
The new Ansys Thermal Desktop Launcher makes it easy to browse recently opened models, create and save user templates, and start new models.
The integration of Ansys Thermal Desktop with Ansys Model Center is now part of the standard installation instead of a separate plug-in, providing an out-of-the-box integration between Thermal Desktop and ModelCenter.
A thermal desktop node is now available in Ansys optiSLang as a beta feature, bringing optiSLang’s design optimization capabilities to Thermal Desktop users.
It's vital to Ansys that all users, including those with disabilities, can access our products. As such, we endeavor to follow accessibility requirements based on the US Access Board (Section 508), Web Content Accessibility Guidelines (WCAG), and the current format of the Voluntary Product Accessibility Template (VPAT).
