ENGYS is delighted to announce the release 3.5.2 of HELYX, a general-purpose Computational Fluid Dynamics (CFD) software solution for engineering design and optimisation based on ENGYS' own open-source simulation engine (HELYX-Core). The new release also includes updates for all of HELYX's add-on solver modules, namely: Adjoint, Coupled, Marine and Hydro.
HELYX 3.5.2 is a patch release focused on bug fixes and code refinements to remove known issues found in our previous version 3.5.1. The fixes applied in this new release cover all aspects of the product, including the GUI, meshing, setup utilities, flow solvers and documentation. The complete list of changes and additions in 3.5.2 is provided as part of the Release Notes delivered with the software.
In parallel to this, ENGYS is also very excited to announce the start of the pre-release testing programme for HELYX 4.0.0. The first release candidate of HELYX 4.0.0 (RC1) and its associated add-ons are now available to all existing HELYX customers. ENGYS will provide new release candidates every 1 or 2 weeks until the final official release scheduled at the end of Q1 2023. All HELYX customers are encouraged to try 4.0.0 and send ENGYS their feedback.
To get started with both 3.5.2 and 4.0.0, log in to the ENGYS client portal and proceed to the Downloads section to retrieve the new installation files for Linux and Windows.
