NovaSolver Studio v0.1.0 — first public preview

Open-source engineering simulation (structural, thermal, flow) with a ran → converged → verified gate on every result, a JA / EN / ZH interface and an MCP server for AI assistants.

Download

NovaSolverStudio-0.1.0-win64.zip (Windows 10/11, portable — unzip and double-click NovaSolverStudio.exe)
SHA-256: 9abcfb95e3e1f76af0ddb090737faf79c40c4953db0fde8ee5477e3bff8c1da6

The preview is not code-signed yet. If Windows SmartScreen warns, choose More info → Run anyway.

Included

  • Built-in preview solvers (quadratic tetrahedral FEM for structural & thermal, 2D cavity flow)
  • CalculiX 2.23 (structural & thermal final runs) and the Microsoft MPI runtime
  • Samples: L-bracket, heat sink, pipe elbow, sphere, water-cooled plate

Flow analyses need OpenFOAM®

Install the OpenFOAM® v2606 Windows (MinGW) package to %LOCALAPPDATA%\NovaSolverStudio\solvers\openfoam (no admin rights). Guide: https://novasolver.jp/en/studio/
