Polyhedral CFD delivers more for less
CD Adapco has released what it claims to be the world's first fully integrated process for polyhedral computational fluid dynamics.
CFD software handles large models with ease
Written "from the ground up" using a modular programming style and the latest programming techniques, Star-CCM+ is an entirely new concept in CFD.
Star-CCM+ is unique in the current CFD marketplace.
The combination of CD Adapco's polyhedral cell technology, an easy-to-use front-end and state-of-the-art object-oriented, client-server software, means Star-CCM+ empowers engineers to solve their flow and thermal problems like no other CFD code.
Polyhedral cells have the synergistic properties of quick and easy meshing (even with the most complex geometries) showing significantly improved solution accuracy over tetrahedral methodologies, while using less memory.
President and Founder of CD Adapco, Steve MacDonald says: "This year sees the 25th anniversary of CD Adapco".
"All this time in the CAE business has taught us how to deliver products that lead the field in process integration and quick model setup and turnaround".
"Star-CCM+, with its polyhedral cell capability, can save your engineers time and your business money".
This release uses the very latest compiler enhancements, resulting in up to a 20% speedup for Linux 64bit users.
Other enhancements include improvements to Star-CCM+'s already superior visualisation functionality, support of new hardware configurations and supercomputer message passing interfaces (MPIs).
Star-CCM+ 1.08 is the recommended upgrade for all 1.06 users.
