winget install --id Thunderhead.PyroSim.2026About PyroSim 2026
PyroSim was designed to complement the Fire Dynamics Simulator (FDS) developed by NIST in the US. With state-of-the-art fire research facilities and personnel, they understand the calculations of fire simulation better than anyone. FDS is the engine powering fire simulations all over the world. PyroSim empowers more engineers to use this technology and elevates its capabilities. 1. PyroSim provides graphical tools which automatically generate the text-only FDS input file. 2. PyroSim imports CAD, enables advanced si...
What's new in 26.1.0211
User Experience Improvements PyroSim 2026.1 delivers meaningful user experience and stability improvements aimed at creating a smoother, more efficient modeling workflow. Expanded support for additional keyboard shortcuts helps users work faster and more intuitively, while updated warnings provide clearer feedback during model setup. Stability has been improved during scenario creation, reducing interruptions in complex projects, and major OpenGL updates have enhanced rendering stability, resulting in more reliable and consistent visualization performance. Results Changes Results handling in the new PyroSim release has been enhanced to better support common analysis workflows and reduce manual setup. 3D Smoke results are now automatically activated when available, allowing users to immediately visualize smoke behavior without additional configuration. In addition, CSV results data can now be auto-loaded, streamlining access to numerical output and making it easier to review, plot, and post-process simulation results directly after a run completes. You can read more about the changes to Results in the Results Documentation. Documentation Improvements The 2026.1 release includes a major overhaul of the product documentation, focused on making information easier and faster to access. Navigation has been significantly improved through the introduction of pagination, allowing users to move more quickly between sections, while a new document-wide search tool makes it easier to find specific topics and answers. Pages that are new or have been updated are now clearly highlighted, h...
