System Coupling Overview

Ansys System Coupling™ physics solver connection software solves multiphysics problems by connecting multiple coupling participants (physics solvers) together to perform the coupled analysis. For more information, see Ansys System Coupling. The implementation of a System Coupling participant library within a given application enables that application to become a coupling participant. A coupling participant can be connected to any other coupling participant to exchange the solution data with that participant within the context of a coupled analysis. Furthermore, the coupling participant can use the same library to transfer the data across non-conformal mesh interfaces in-memory, without connecting to other coupling participants.

OS and supported languages

System Coupling participant libraries are available for Windows and Linux in:

  • C (from V89)
  • C++ (from V11)
  • Python (from 3.10)
  • Fortran (from v2003)
