Software simulates movement of particulate solids
DEM Solutions is to launch the latest version of its EDEM software at Powtech 2007 in Nurnberg, Germany 27th - 29th March 2007.
EDEM is already established in the design and analysis of particulate handling, processing, and manufacturing operations in almost every industry sector and engineering discipline.
Now, with EDEM 2.0, DEM Solutions offers the best possible return on investment in DEM with the most versatile software available.
EDEM 2.0 is easy-to-use, offers an extensive set of features enabling a wide range of particulate processes to be simulated, and is customisable for user applications.
It is also the first commercial DEM software able to simulate more than one million particles on a desktop computer.
EDEM 2.0 features: a faster solver that can compute on up to eight CPUs; a new compact file format that provides a significant reduction in file size; a tenfold increase in visualisation speed; and inbuilt video generation capabilities in all major video codecs.
Upgrading to EDEM 2.0 will enhance the DEM user experience in numerous ways.
It will allow the use of the latest technology in desktop multiprocessor computers on the market.
EDEM models containing very large number of particles can now be visualised and videos can be now be generated within EDEM as well as images using all major codecs.
Now, with EDEM 2.0, users can experience increased productivity, faster turnaround of projects, larger-scale simulations, and a greater range of applications, without requiring a substantial addition of data storage capacity (thanks to new compact file sizes).
"EDEM 2.0 is another milestone in the development of DEM as a key tool to help engineers solve critical particle handling and processing problems", says John Favier, CEO of DEM Solutions.
"It is highly parallelised and is capable of simulating systems containing over a million particles using standard desktop multiprocessor hardware".
"This release will enable our customers to increase their productivity and the scale of applications they can address using EDEM".
