Azore CFD vs. SimForDesign Comparison Chart

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.
