Reference Frame for Spatially Varying Heat Profile BC and Porous Media

• For spatially varying heat boundary conditions, you can now view the reference frame associated with each surface, which will be used to apply the spatial variation.
• For porous media behaviors, you can now view the reference frame associated with each volume, which will be used to apply Darcy and Forchheimer coefficients.

Note: This feature is currently incompatible with tags.

Tags as References for Meshing

Tags can now be used as references to volumes for mesh sizing, supporting robust mesh automation pipelines.

OpenCSM Integration

We now support integration with OpenCSM, developed by Engineering Sketch Pad. OpenCSM is an open-source CAD package that enables parametric geometry modeling.

2D Power Maps

We've released 2D Power Maps, enabling you to apply a spatially varying heat flux boundary condition. Read more here.

Projects and Results Filters

Add filters to streamline navigation and simplify views based on data in the Projects and Results tables.

Other Enhancements

Here's what's new in our latest update:

Subtract using Shrinkwrap

The Shrinkwrap tool now supports volume subtraction. This is particularly useful for creating clean outer envelopes while omitting internal components or voids.

Other Enhancements

• We've added filters to the projects and results table
• The Plasma color map is now available

Fixed Issues

• The footer was not being shown when opening a simulation tab
• Tags were not usable when creating an Intersection Curve

SDK Image Supersampling

We've added support for supersampling in the SDK rendering pipeline. Images are rendered at a higher internal resolution and downsampled using area-based averaging to reduce aliasing.
​
​Without supersampling:

With supersampling:

Other Enhancements

• Enabled the ability to use the final mesh from an LMA simulation as the input for subsequent LMA simulations, allowing for iterative workflows
• Velocity Magnitude and Velocity Components inlet conditions are now available for compressible flows
• Double click on projects to open them (single click will now only select a project)
• Visualization rendering will automatically switch to server-side for simulation results with greater than 100M CVs

Here's what's new in our latest product update:

Blender Integration

We’ve released a Blender integration that enables you to import and parametrically modify Blender models directly in the Luminary platform. With this capability, you can easily generate geometry variations that can be simulated at scale to generate datasets for physics AI model training.

Explore the Blender integration tutorial here.

Geometry: Configurations

Configurations allow you to easily swap between different, previously set-up geometry variations. When you create a Configuration, you set up each configuration as a set of 0, 1, or more volumes and give it a unique name.

You then choose an active configuration. All volumes associated with the active configuration are kept, while volumes not associated with the active configuration are removed from the model. You can later choose a different active configuration, and the model will be updated to display the volumes associated with that configuration instead.

Geometry: File Swapping

We've added a button to the Import panel that allows you to swap the file to easily swap in a different geometry file.

Other Enhancements

• Minimum and Maximum Resolution controls are now available for Shrinkwrapping

Fixed Issues

• Adding a monitor plane or point wouldn't update the geometry tree until the page was refreshed
• Visualization filters were being generated before fields are available

Here's what's new in our latest product update:

Blender Model Import

Seamlessly import your Blender models into Luminary with full parametric control. This powerful integration preserves shape keys across multiple file formats—allowing you to modify geometry directly within the Luminary platform. No more switching between applications to test design variations.

​

With Blender's flexible modeling capabilities, you can now rapidly explore design alternatives, run optimizations, and generate rich datasets for physics AI model training. Simply import your parameterized model, adjust values using intuitive sliders, and instantly see how changes affect performance.

File Swapping

Quickly iterate on your designs with our new file swapping functionality. You can now swap imported CAD files with a single click using the new swap button, eliminating the need to start over when you want to try a different model. This approach saves you time and keeps your workflow uninterrupted as you explore design alternatives.

The swap feature works seamlessly with both continuous and discrete geometry types, giving you flexibility with various CAD formats. Currently, swapping from continuous to discrete geometry isn't supported, but we're working on enabling automatic transitions between these types in an upcoming update.

Other Enhancements

• Select multiple simulations in the results table to open, export, or delete them simultaneously
• Use the new Line filter in Luminary3D client-side rendering, including an intuitive point placement widget
• Create 2D plots with the Line filter functionality

Fixed Issues

• Improved tolerance to bounding box failure, reducing "Surface is illegal and cannot be evaluated" errors
• Resolved issue where geometry wouldn't update after adding a monitor plane or point until page refresh
• Fixed error that occurred when running new simulations with filters requiring specific fields (e.g., streamlines)

Here's what's new in our latest update:

SDK Image Generation

You can now generate images directly from the Luminary SDK, enabling you to automate the post-processing visualization pipeline in Luminary.

Fixed Issues

• Closing the Run Status panel would cause it to be permanently inaccessible.
• Updated the message received when a job exceeds the maximum run time limit: "Job exceeded time limit. The simulation can be restarted using the solution from the final iteration."
• An incorrect surface color was being displayed when first opening a new or shared project, causing the geometry to look washed out.

AI Assistant: Code Editor

You can now generate Luminary SDK code using the AI Assistant. The Assistant has access to your project metadata, so you can ask it to generate SDK code to perform a variety of tasks without needing to manually enter the parameters. Read more about Luminary's SDK here.

Other Enhancements

• You can now favorite simulations in the Results page using the star icon to the left of the simulation name
• The AI Assistant can assign volumes and surfaces to reference frames to define motion
