class ansys.turbogrid.core.launcher.launcher.TurboGridVersion(value)#

Bases: Enum

Provide an enumeration over supported TurboGrid versions.

Attributes:

`version_23R2`
`version_24R1`

version_23R2 = '23.2.0'#

version_24R1 = '24.1.0'#

ansys.turbogrid.core.launcher.launcher.get_latest_ansys_version() → str#

Get the latest installed Ansys version from AWP_ROOTxxx environment variables.

Note

The xxx is the three-digit Ansys version. For example, the AWP_ROOT232 environment variable specifies the path to the directory where Ansys 2023 R2 is installed. If Ansys 2023 R2 is installed in the default directory on Windows, the value for this environment variable is C:\Program Files\ANSYS Inc\v232.

Returns#

str: Latest installed Ansys version in this format: "23.2.0".

ansys.turbogrid.core.launcher.launcher.get_turbogrid_exe_path(**launch_argvals) → Path#

Get the path to a local installation of TurboGrid.

The path is obtained by searching in this order:

The path specified by the turbogrid_path parameter from launch_argvals.
The path specified by the PYTURBOGRID_TURBOGRID_ROOT environment variable.
The path of the TurboGrid installation specified by the product_version parameter from launch_argvals, using the corresponding AWP_ROOTxxx environment variable.
The path of the TurboGrid installation from the AWP_ROOTxxx environment variable for the latest installed Ansys version.

Returns#

Path: Path of a local TurboGrid installation.
