Ansys Mosaic meshing technology

Mosaic mesh is a patent pending Ansys Fluent meshing technology for computational fluid dynamic simulations. It accelerates the meshing process with a reduced face count, higher quality cells and efficient parallel scalability. Mosaic meshing technology enables polyhedral connections between disparate mesh types.

Up to Speed

Ferrari Competizioni GT leverages next-level, automated meshing capabilities from Ansys Fluent to increase simulation productivity by 300%.

 

"Ferrari engineers can run three times as many CFD simulations in the same amount of time — and develop cars faster than ever before."

Ferrari engineers work constantly to optimize aerodynamics and other aspects of vehicle designs, with the goal of crossing the finish line first and reinforcing Ferrari’s brand leadership. Every two or three years, the Ferrari Competizioni GT engineering team pushes itself to engineer an upgraded GT race car within a 12-month window.  

Innovations in Ansys Fluent such as Mosaic meshing have enabled tremendous workflow and productivity benefits for Ferrari Competizioni GT. Automated workflows help boosts productivity by reducing the user learning curve, minimizing the chance of human error and freeing engineers to focus on higher-value work. Thanks to Mosaic-enabled poly-hexcore meshing, Ferrari engineers have been able to decrease the number of meshing cells by 15%. This reduction, when combined with the new hex-dominant mesh, delivers overall solution times that are twice as fast.
