Capabilities
| The computation Fluid Dynamics (CFD) programs
include: |
| INSTED/CFD Mesh
Generator
INSTED/CFD Solver
INSTED/CFD Post-ProcessorHeat conduction,
Free convection, Mixed convection, Conjugate heat
transfer, Steady or unsteady flows, Laminar and
turbulence flows
Adiabatic walls, heat flux, Prescribed
temperatures |
|
| INSTED/CFD Mesh Generator |
| Features a truly
automatic mesh generator that drastically reduces
the effort required to create discretized models.
High quality mesh algorithm that typically
produces close to square elements, when possible.
Allows the integration of structured and
unstructured meshes.
Easy application of boundary conditions - boundary
conditions may be applied to lines or to nodes. |
