Building on the major advances introduced in recent releases, PreonLab 7.1 marks the next step in making particle-based simulation more powerful, practical, and user-friendly.
This release introduces exciting new capabilities for airflow generation to support soiling simulations, extends vehicle dynamics functionality, and further advances thermal simulation with meaningful improvements in both performance and accuracy. At the same time, PreonLab 7.1 delivers a broad range of workflow and usability enhancements shaped directly by customer feedback. Together, these updates strengthen physics modeling, improve software efficiency, and make everyday simulation work smoother and more intuitive.
Join our Release Event to explore the new capabilities in action and see how they can improve your simulation workflows!
Key topics and takeaways:
• Virtual Wind Tunnel: An integrated FVM solver to generate steady and transient airflows directly in PreonLab, designed to accelerate early-stage soiling simulations
• Higher-order thermal solver upgrades: Improvements in simulation efficiency and accuracy across key validation cases, strengthening PreonLab’s thermal capabilities
• Workflow and usability improvements: Stopping criteria, calculation objects, sensor data export to EnSight Gold, scene access and concurrency control, and more
• Vehicle dynamics enhancements: Improved simulation stability and enhanced cornering and steering behavior based on Ackermann kinematics
• External loads for dynamic rigid bodies: New ways to apply point loads, forces, torques, and rotational motor effects to dynamic rigids for more realistic simulation behavior
