Common Fluids Format 2026 R1

Ansys Common Fluids

Last update: 24.03.2026

Using the Ansys Common Fluids API to Read Data

The ansys::CffProvider class allows a CFF case file or a pair of CFF case and results files that were produced by an Ansys application that supports this format to be read and processed by your application.

This class has methods to open a specific file and read the available mesh, topology, physics, and settings information from the CFF case file and/or solution and settings data from the CFF results file.

An object of this class can be created using a 'C++' factory function (ansys::getDataProvider) and subsequently used directly.

Note
A set of wrapper functions are provided to allow access to the same functionality from a 'C' program.
