API reference

This section describes the core Pythonic interfaces for Fluent. Here, you can find the application programming interfaces for such things as launching Fluent, assorted utilities, as well as the interfaces for the meshing and solver components of Fluent.

Launching Fluent

This component provides access to starting Fluent locally in server mode or connecting to a running Fluent server instance.

PyFluent utility functions

This component consists solely of a function to allow for asynchronous execution.

Meshing

The meshing mode is dedicated to capturing the capabilities of the Fluent Meshing guided workflows and associated tools. This component consists of an interface that is derived from the Fluent (meshing) TUI, as well as a meshing workflow interface that manages workflow tasks, meshing functions, and part management.

Solver

The solver mode is dedicated to capturing the power of the Fluent solver. This component consists of a Solver settings objects-based interface or a solver.tui-based interface that is derived from the Fluent (solver) TUI, as well as access to Fluent surface, scalar and vector field data.
