A new solver algorithm for the MPAS-Ocean model significantly enhances climate research by reducing computational time and improving accuracy. This breakthrough, integrating Fortran and C++ programming, is a step forward in efficient and reliable climate modeling.

The new Simcenter FLOEFD 2312 software release from Siemens enhances CAD-embedded computational fluid dynamics to shorten preprocessing activities, accelerate electronics thermal design workflows, while adding new capabilities for structural analysis, and an improved Application Programming Interface (API) for simulation automation, the company reports.

In order to design better products, engineers need to predict the consequence of any design changes on the real-world performance of their product, for better or for worse. Historically those predictions came from hand calculations or from the experimental testing of physical prototypes. Today, engineering simulation offers comprehensive predictions that are usually more accurate and always less expensive than experimental testing.

ANSYS FLUENT software contains the broad physical modeling capabilities needed to model flow, turbulence, heat transfer, and reactions for industrial applications ranging from air flow over an aircraft wing to combustion in a furnace, from bubble columns to oil platforms, from blood flow to semiconductor manufacturing, and from clean room design to wastewater treatment plants. Special models that give the software the ability to model in-cylinder combustion, aeroacoustics, turbomachinery, and multiphase systems have served to broaden its reach. (more…)
