The path forward for GAMBIT CFD Users
Special offer for GAMBIT users
Upgrade from Gambit to Coreform Cubit for modern, robust meshing and improved workflows for today’s simulation challenges.
Most GAMBIT users know that support and development for this trusted tool have long been discontinued. They may not know that GAMBIT’s original source product, Cubit, is still supported and actively developed by Sandia National Laboratory, and is distributed commercially by Coreform. Our comprehensive toolset for high-quality FEA and CFD mesh generation, Coreform Cubit, has a similar user experience and enables the shortest path to an appropriate mesh for 𝐆𝐀𝐌𝐁𝐈𝐓 users.
Right now, Coreform is offering an aggressive discount for current 𝐆𝐀𝐌𝐁𝐈𝐓 users who are interested in switching to Coreform Cubit. Book a meeting with us to learn more about Coreform Cubit and get the details on the discount.

The history of Cubit and GAMBIT
Decades ago, GAMBIT was branched from the Cubit FEA meshing code and developed specifically for CFD. The GAMBIT toolkit was later sold to ANSYS, and support and development of GAMBIT was discontinued. Cubit development continued at Sandia National Laboratories and is now supported by Coreform.
Coreform is the exclusive commercial distributor of the Cubit meshing technology under the name Coreform Cubit. Coreform Cubit is a comprehensive toolset for high-quality FEA and CFD mesh generation that provides a similar user experience as GAMBIT, and offers ongoing development and support. Coreform Cubit enables the shortest path to an appropriate mesh for GAMBIT users.
“Our team has been using Coreform Cubit for CFD meshing since 2015 when we switched over from GAMBIT. Cubit is a reliable meshing software capable of building very large and complex computational meshes for CFD simulation that just works!”
—Ed Wicklein, Principal Technologist
Many GAMBIT users have already found Coreform Cubit to be a familiar and excellent upgrade to their meshing needs. For example, Carollo switched from GAMBIT to Coreform Cubit in and has been successfully using Cubit since 2015. Coreform Cubit has a similar workflow to GAMBIT coupled with additional advanced meshing capabilities including boundary layer technology that Carollo finds is superior to that of GAMBIT.
Coreform Cubit enables quickly moving from CAD to a complete CFD model through geometry editing, comprehensive meshing. This comprehensive capability is further supported by multiple automation capabilities. Coreform Cubit provides fully automated and semi-automated meshing routines, manual methods that provide more control, or combinations of both to ensure the highest quality model discretization that leverages state-of-the-art hex dominant and quad-dominant meshing.
Coreform Cubit is being continually enhanced with new meshing capabilities and user interface improvements. Coreform Cubit works well with both Fluent and OpenFOAM.
