In a breakthrough that could reshape the future of aerospace, automotive, and advanced manufacturing, Ansys has teamed up with NVIDIA to unlock new frontiers in quantum computing—by harnessing the power of Denmark’s first AI supercomputer, Gefion.
The collaboration marks a milestone in quantum-classical integration, as Ansys leverages the NVIDIA CUDA-Q platform to accelerate the development of quantum algorithms for fluid dynamics—a complex field critical to design and performance engineering.
🌐 Gefion: Denmark’s Quantum-Enabled Supercomputing Marvel
Gefion, operated by DCAI and supported by the Novo Nordisk Foundation and the Export and Investment Fund of Denmark, is based in Copenhagen. The system consists of an NVIDIA DGX SuperPOD integrated with Quantum-2 InfiniBand networking, enabling lightning-fast, high-fidelity simulation capabilities.
Using CUDA-Q, an open-source quantum computing software platform from NVIDIA, researchers at Ansys simulated how Quantum Lattice Boltzmann Methods—a class of algorithms relevant to fluid dynamics—would operate on a 39-qubit quantum machine.
🧠 Accelerated Quantum Discovery
“Researchers need to run meaningfully large simulations today to discover practical quantum applications for tomorrow,” said Tim Costa, senior director of Quantum and CUDA-X at NVIDIA. “With CUDA-Q and supercomputing platforms like Gefion, we’re enabling a step change in quantum’s impact.”
The CUDA-Q libraries tap directly into GPU acceleration, allowing hybrid quantum-classical computing—a key bridge toward functional quantum systems in real-world industries.
🛠️ Ansys: Engineering the Quantum Future
“CUDA-Q’s GPU-accelerated simulations let us examine quantum behavior in computational fluid dynamics,” said Prith Banerjee, CTO of Ansys. “This partnership is expanding quantum’s role in solving complex engineering challenges.”
Nadia Carlsten, CEO of DCAI, emphasized the collaborative momentum:
“We’re seeing how CUDA-Q can unlock hybrid computing for researchers using Gefion. Working with NVIDIA and Ansys is accelerating the convergence of AI supercomputing and quantum science.”
🌍 Global Momentum in Quantum Research
This collaboration builds on NVIDIA’s global quantum computing initiatives, including:
- ABCI-Q in Japan: The world’s largest quantum research supercomputer.
- NCHC Taiwan: A new NVIDIA-powered supercomputer driving quantum simulations across East Asia.
🔮 Outlook
As quantum computing inches closer to practical applications, partnerships like Ansys + NVIDIA + DCAI are at the vanguard—bridging theoretical models with real-world performance.
Gefion’s success is not just Denmark’s milestone—it’s a global beacon for the future of high-performance quantum simulation.
