Chapter XIV ANSYS interface with other programs
14.1 What is the interface software?
Interface Software is the ANSYS program to allow other applications and data exchange software.The software package can be made independent or accede to the application.
This chapter of the currently available interface software to be introduced.See ANSYS third-party software directory.
14.2 and computer-aided design (CAD) program interface
Many CAD programs with a direct interface to ANSYS program, ANSYS company or by writing CAD software vendor.Companies can get the following from the ANSYS program decoder: AutoCAD, CADAM, CADKEY, and Pro / ENGINEER.For other procedures, see the ANSYS software, directory, or to third-party CAD software provider.
Note that ANSYS ─ Pro / ENGINEER interface, because it provides the basis to implement the components of the optimal design parameters of the function.This function allows the component-based parametric Pro / ENGINEER models began with the ANSYS program to optimize, and an optimization of the Pro / ENGINEER model over, and still is a component-based parametric model.On how to use ANSYS ─ Pro / ENGINEER Interface, "ANSYS / ProFEA User's Guide" and "ANSYS / ProFEA Training Guide" training guide a more detailed explanation.
14.3 with other finite element analysis (FEA) program interface
Range of interfaces available to the following software:
* Kinematics
* Computational Fluid Dynamics (CFD).Use FLOTRAN CFD module, ANSYS program can be fully integrated CFD capabilities.
* Graphics and Publishing
* Pre-treatment and post-processing
* Injection Molding Analysis
* Acoustics and Noise Reduction
* Experimental Modal Analysis
* Fracture and Fatigue
* Multi-body system
* Shan collision analysis and metal forming
* Dynamics
These applications can interface software generally get their suppliers.
