generation, rail, and specialized mechanical engineering applications.
The technology-leading Computational Fluid Dynamics flow, thermal, and
stress simulation (CFD/CAE) STAR codes have outstanding capabilities
for handling complex fluid flow and heat transfer problems including
transient flows, chemical reaction, free-surface flows, combustion, rotating
systems, multiphase and multiphysics.
There
are four ways in which CD-adapco delivers its CFD technology in software:
- STAR-CCM+
is a radically new full-spectrum CFD/CAE processing environment that
features the latest object-oriented methods and ergonomically designed
GUI for streamlined integration into any company's engineering process.
Solutions on polyhedral cells enable faster and more accurate solutions
than any other of the world’s legacy CFD codes.
- STAR-CD
remains the world’s most advanced CFD code, comes with advanced
pre-processing tools, and is now enhanced by the inclusion of any one
of the environments from the STAR-CAD Series.
- STAR-CAD
Series is a range of products that deliver non-complex CFD in an easy
to use CAD-embedded environment
- Expert
Systems (‘es-solutions’) are application-specific bundles
that talk the specific engineering language required. They can be viewed
as ‘packaged consultancy’ since they are honed for solving
particular application challenges.
