Advanced CFD Analysis
SimScale's CFD software revolutionizes the field of fluid dynamics simulation by offering a comprehensive solution that can analyze a wide range of problems related to laminar and turbulent flows, incompressible and compressible fluids, multiphase flows, and more. The software operates entirely in a web browser, eliminating the barriers of limited computing power, accessibility, and high costs. This cloud-based engineering platform provides engineers and designers with the tools they need to conduct detailed fluid dynamic simulations efficiently and accurately.
GPU-Based Solver
SimScale's CFD software integrates a GPU-based solver using the lattice Boltzmann method (LBM) to significantly reduce the time and cost associated with transient simulations. By partnering with Numeric Systems GmbH and utilizing their tool, Pacefish®, SimScale has achieved unparalleled speed and accuracy in transient simulations, reducing running times from weeks and days to hours and minutes. This solver can run on multiple GPUs in parallel, delivering turnaround times that are 20-30 times faster than standard methods. Additionally, Pacefish® supports various turbulence modeling types, making it a unique and powerful tool among LBM solvers.
Incompressible and Compressible Flow Modeling
SimScale's CFD modeling component allows users to simulate both incompressible and compressible flow with robustness and accuracy. Accurately modeling compressibility is crucial for product development and design in various applications such as airplanes, car spoilers, airfoils, injectors, and more. The validation cases demonstrate the software's capability to handle compressibility considerations effectively, leading to safer and better product designs.
Laminar and Turbulent Flow Simulation
SimScale's CFD analysis software supports the modeling of both laminar and turbulent flow regimes, catering to a wide range of applications such as pipes, cyclone separators, smoke propagation, and cleanroom design. The software provides users with tools for steady and transient simulations, multiple turbulence models including k-omega SST and k-epsilon, and the ability to handle complex flow equations accurately.
Fluid Transport and Thermal Modeling
SimScale's CFD analysis software enables users to perform simulations of mass transport in fluid flows for applications like water purification, contamination control, and gas or smoke propagation analysis. The software also offers convective and conjugate heat transfer modeling capabilities, enhancing its simulation capabilities for thermal analysis. With tools for conduction, convection, and thermal modeling, SimScale's CFD software empowers users to perform advanced simulations.
