We see from your search that you're looking for information on the term "CFD Software",
and we have a large number of manufacturers' news releases and technical articles here on Engineeringtalk which will be of interest.
Let me be your guide.
Start with
the news release F1 initiative makes CAD-embedded CFD attractive from
Flomerics, which we summarised at the time by saying "Restrictions on the use of computational fluid dynamics analysis software by Formula One teams might actually increase the use of more efficient CFD tools".
A couple of weeks before,
we featured the news release 20 years of computational fluid dynamics from
Flomerics: "Flomerics has reached an age that puts it among the oldest companies involved in computer aided engineering".
In January 2008, we covered the news from Flomerics
concerning its EFD.Pro
- take a look at CFD software supports latest Wildfire release
which says: "Unlike other CFD programs, EFD.Pro works directly with native Pro/Engineer geometry - with no translation or copies - in order to keep pace with on-going design changes".
Take a look also at the news release from Flomerics, Group aims for wider acceptance of CFD,
as well as Software replaces wind tunnel experiments from Ansys,
and Simulation software receives user approval from Flomerics.
