Streamlines around a cyclist — computational fluid dynamics simulation

Computational Fluid Dynamics

Computational fluid dynamics (CFD) simulates the behaviour of liquids and gases. With our software, we model turbulence, mixing, heat transfer and fluid-structure interactions (FSI).

Our areas of expertise

  • Internal and external flows
  • Heat transfer
  • Free surfaces
  • Multiphase flows
  • Aeroelastic structure
  • Turbomachinery
  • Aerodynamics
  • Ventilation
  • Environmental studies
  • Industrial process slurry

Our capabilities

  • Steady-state and transient regimes
  • Turbulence (RANS, LES, DES)
  • Conjugate heat transfer
  • Joule heating
  • Multi-fluid (VOF, Eulerian)
  • Porous media
  • Lagrangian particles
  • Fluid-structure interaction (one-way and two-way)
