### DDPM (Denoising Diffusion Probabilistic Model) Configuration and Usage in Fluent

In the context of computational fluid dynamics, ANSYS Fluent is a widely used software package for simulating fluid flow, heat transfer, mass transport, and related phenomena. However, it should be noted that **ANSYS Fluent does not natively support configurations or direct implementations specifically labeled as Denoising Diffusion Probabilistic Models (DDPM)**[^1].

The application domain of DDPMs primarily lies within generative modeling tasks such as image synthesis, audio generation, etc., which are outside the typical scope of what Fluent aims to achieve with its simulation capabilities.

For integrating advanced machine learning models like DDPM into engineering simulations performed using tools similar to Fluent, one would typically look at external libraries designed for deep learning frameworks such as TensorFlow or PyTorch. These can potentially interface with CFD results through custom scripting interfaces provided by Fluent's User Defined Functions (UDFs), but this requires significant development effort beyond standard usage scenarios[^2].

To leverage concepts from DDPMs alongside Fluent workflows:

- Explore coupling between Fluent’s output data streams feeding into separate ML pipelines where DDPM could process generated datasets.

- Utilize Python APIs available both within modern versions of Fluent along with those offered by popular DL platforms to facilitate interoperability.

import ansys.fluent.core as pyfluent
from diffusers import DDPMScheduler, UNet2DModel

# Initialize Fluent session via PyFluent API
session = pyfluent.launch_fluent()

# Define your own logic here to connect fluent outputs with input requirements expected by DDPM components...
scheduler = DDPMScheduler()
model = UNet2DModel.from_pretrained("path_to_ddpm_model")

def preprocess_fluent_data_for_ml(fluent_output):
    """Custom function converting Fluent result formats suitable for downstream ML processing."""
    pass
    
processed_input = preprocess_fluent_data_for_ml(session.get_solution())
