APEX, NC, Feb 28, 2008 – Computational Engineering International (CEI) announced today that the latest version of EnSight, the company’s extreme visualization software, is now available and is being called the EnSight 2008 Winter Release.

The Winter Release includes several new additions to the powerful visualization product; an option to add CAD file importers to access native CAD files without the use of the original CAD system, a new FLUENT direct interface, and the introduction of Chameleon Mode, a technique to modify the graphical user interface (GUI) to suit each user’s specific needs.

The CAD readers now offered include CATIA V5, CATIA V4, IGES, Parasolid. Pro/ENGINEER, SolidWorks, STEP, Unigraphics, and ACIS. CEI has leveraged technology from CAD market leader, Dassault Systemes’ Spatial, to ensure the quality of CAD file conversion.

The new FLUENT direct data reader improves the speed, robustness, and capability of the previous reader. With the new FLUENT beta reader we have added faster data loading; SOS support for large models and distributed computations; and convenience specifically related to quickly uncompressing zipped files, availability of a list of variables for parts, and the ability to load a single part.

"The new and much more complete FLUENT data reader in EnSight is extremely helpful for our user base, particularly in the automotive industry where FLUENT and EnSight are a popular combination for CFD analysis" says Johannes Grawe, president of numeco software GmbH & Co KG. "Apart from more complete time and variable options with the new FLUENT data loader our users can look forward to using the auto-distribute functionality that will allow them to run large FLUENT datasets with EnSight Gold, the parallel version. I am sure this will boost our users productivity and allow larger and more detailed CFD analysis in an even shorter time frame," adds Martin Rossler, senior technical engineer at numeco, "I look forward to trying it out myself and checking out some of the giant datasets that we have not been able to look at yet."

Chameleon Mode allows users of EnSight to develop their own GUI with the ability to switch from the standard EnSight GUI to a custom GUI directly within EnSight.

“We've added dozens of new features to EnSight, this is the most significant update to EnSight in over a year. We can't wait to get this version into the hands of our customers,” said Darin McKinnis, CEI’s vice president of sales and marketing.”
