About

Known for its extreme robustness, CFX is the gold standard CFD software when it comes to turbomachinery applications. Both solver and models are wrapped in a modern, intuitive, and flexible GUI, with extensive capabilities for customization and automation using session files, scripting and a powerful expression language. Highly scalable high-performance computing will help speed up simulations including pumps, fans, compressors and turbines. New manufacturing methods have opened the door to more effective turbine cooling channel geometries. The new geometries will lead to better performance and efficiency but are more complex. To achieve highly accurate results, a team of Purdue engineers turned to Ansys CFX. The engineers executed key computations with little turnaround time. With the extra time, they could perform more in-depth comparisons and run further simulations to fully optimize their product.

About

AzoreCFD has been a trusted, cutting-edge software tool since 2007. Azore focuses on analysis, design, engineering, and on obtaining precise, and quick results. Customers use Azore for applications that include: industrial flows, aerodynamics, thermal mixing, conjugate heat transfer, gas species mixing, heating and cooling systems, external flows, and more. Azore can be used to simulate essentially any steady-state or transient fluid flow model, including problems that involve conjugate heat transfer and special transport. With flexible pre/post processing, Azore allows for arbitrary polyhedral mesh topology with several import formats supported. Built-in post-processing capabilities includes: scalar fields, pathlines, animations, residual reports, vector fields, ISO-surfaces, force & movement reports, and export for external post-processing.

Pros from Real Users

Pros

  • Azore is a simple, easy to use CFD tool that excels at solving general flow fields. Strong post processing abilities; with a small amount of scripting knowledge one can automate creating nicely formatted reports. Customer support is also very good.
  • The overall visualization provided by Azore is fantastic. Seeing the flow path in motion helps both technical and non technical colleagues understand a project.
  • The solver is very robust. It is also easy to setup an analysis using Azore GUI. The calculation speed is very fast, especially in cases of large models.
  • Across the variety of commercial CFD solvers I have worked with over the years, this is the single most intuitive CFD solver I have worked with for every aspect of the entire CFD process. Many CFD solvers spend way too much effort on showing you all of the possible options for tuning the case and solver. Azore very well organizes every aspect of your case, from mesh import and setup to post processing, into a very straightforward linear path, allowing for efficient, direct CFD setup, and a very easy learning curve. It is very easy to find every setting available and to configure and automate your CFD runs with various boundary conditions. This is extended to post-processing CFD results, where every aspect of your solution data is available to be quickly accessed and exported to a multitude of formats.
