in:Flux v2.14 Release Highlights

July 7, 2022 · Allen Miller

in:Flux

in:Flux v2.14

in:Flux Feature improvements:

  • User-defined transient inflow profiles can now be created for multiple variables, including upstream pressure and temperature (high pressure leaks), and velocity, flow rate, power and temperature (custom emissions, shown above).

  • Added HCO reactions for fire simulations (alongside the standard hydrocarbon CxHy type reactions) for fuels of type CxHyOz:

    HCO Reaction Equation

  • Added the ability to define user-reactions, including user-reactions for non-DIPPR fluids. This provides a great deal of flexibility for fire simulations where the reaction is not of the standard reaction types. To add a user-defined reaction, go to the “Add Item” tab and select “Reaction”:

    User-defined Reaction

  • Hydrogen can now be used for fire simulations.

  • Min values are now output for monitors.

  • Better reporting of transient monitor values in exported Excel spreadsheets.

  • Added transient options for batch image output.

  • Updated DIPPR database to contain more fluids.

  • Added STL Exporter for geometry. This is available by right-clicking on the geometry in the Project Tree and selecting “Export to STL”.

  • Better auto-limits for risk contours, now defaulting to 20% of the maximum value for exceedance (e.g. 20% of the number of simulations for scenario-based exceedance).

Bug Fixes

  • Licensing issues fixed for customers with multiple in:Flux and ifx:Solve licenses.
  • Fixed globalization errors in wind rose import / export.
  • Ventilation-only simulations can be added from the risk manager.
  • Fixed holes in isosurfaces.
  • Fixed a bug where changing the scheduling option on the solver files window set the main project to a solver file.
  • Fixed auto-nudge on plane shapes for inflows. Also changed default nudge to 0.01m.
  • Fixed a bug when recovering simulation data.
  • Fixed bug caused by removing custom gas clouds.
  • Fixed bug where volume fraction variables would occasionally not appear when expected on monitor tables.
  • Fixed when monitor line wind export popup sometimes persisted.
  • Multiple minor bug fixes.
