Omnis™/AutoGrid is today’s reference in turbomachinery and engine design, offering high-quality full automatic multi-block structured meshing within minutes. With just a few simple clicks via a wizard-based workflow, Omnis/AutoGrid guides users from geometry to mesh for a variety of applications.

Omnis™/Autogrid includes access to AutoGrid5™.

Bulb topologies, partial hub and tip gaps, fillets and blunt leading and trailing edges

Omnis/AutoGrid streamlines the simulation workflow and guarantees the reliability of the results by ensuring a maximum mesh quality with a reduced number of cells, a controlled first cell size, and gridlines aligned with the flow paths.

Bulb topologies, partial hub and tip gaps, fillets, blunt leading & trailing edges, cooling holes, and bleed ports can all be easily meshed.

Application-dedicated wizards guide the users to generate high-quality grids in a few minutes, ensuring a large reduction in product development time and effort.

Applications range from centrifugal pumps to turbofans and turbines to all types of propellers, asymmetric end-walls, casing treatment and many more.

Automatic block-division and high-quality meshing of axisymmetric domains

Omnis/AutoGrid produces high quality grids via state-of-the-art smoothing algorithms.

With special techniques such as ZR effects, Cadence has pushed the limits of applicability of structured meshes.

Users can mesh all axi-symmetric effects such as cavities, ported shrouds, leakage paths, etc…

The simulation of large machines, such as wind turbines or ship propellers, requires an very large domain, sometimes extended to hundreds of meters downstream and upstream the blades.

Omnis/AutoGrid automatically generates the far-field around a wind turbine with precisely one click, selecting the mesh settings for optimal mesh quality.

If the blade tip is rounded, the mesh blocks are cleverly rearranged to guarantee a reliable representation of the geometry for accurate simulations of helical tip vortices and cavitation.

Omnis/AutoGrid is available as a standalone or bundled.

Within our Omnis environment users can easily couple their own flow solver to our meshing technology and take advantage of a highly streamlined workflow.

Complete automation of the workflow from A to Z is made possible with the Python plugin API.

Instantaneous mesh previewing with on-the-fly texture mapping gives a quick preliminary sneak view of the mesh before even starting the grid generation process.

Within Omnis, mesh generation methods can be combined to benefit from the best of each technology, combining high-fidelity with speed

• The structured automatic, multi-block meshing tool Omnis/AutoGrid for structured meshes offers unsurpassed speed and accuracy for rotating equipment.

• Omnis™/Hexpress provides high-quality unstructured meshing for even the most complex geometries.

Different methods can be used per domain of simulation or at different places of the same object and connected via non matching connections.

Omnis/AutoGrid offers complete automation from CAD import to post processing.

For the highest-fidelity analysis, where mesh size reaches hundreds of millions of cells, Omnis/AutoGrid operates in parallel, leveraging multi-cores’ computing power.

As a result, a 100-million-cell mesh can be produced in about 2 minutes on 16 cores!
