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

FireFlow Studio for FDS is a fully integrated Windows GUI for NIST's Fire Dynamics Simulator (FDS), built by a practising fire safety engineer for fire engineering consultancies. It covers the complete workflow in one application: 3-D geometry modelling with DXF floor-plan tracing and automatic voxelisation of arcs and circles, multi-mesh setup with visible cells and MPI splitting, a guided fire-design wizard with a D* flame-resolution calculator, one-click runs of the bundled unmodified FDS solver with live monitoring of HRR and device outputs, and an integrated 3-D results viewer with slices, boundary quantities, smoke rendering, scenario-comparison tabs and CSV/PNG export. A built-in finite-element heat-transfer solver is live-coupled to the running FDS simulation, so structural steel temperatures develop alongside the fire with no external FEA package. Hand-written FDS decks round-trip.
