CD-Adapco takes a closer look at safety

摘要

STAR-CCM+, CD-adapco's flagship computational fluid dynamics (CFD) software package, now includes a Dynamic Free Body Interaction (DFBI) system.rnDFBI will allow the fluid induced motion of an object to be predicted in six degrees of freedom, with no additional effort from the user, compared to performing a simple steady state simulation of flow past the same body.rnUnlike traditional CFD software, which is typically limited to simulating the motion of a body along some prescribed path, the DFBI model enables engineers to easily simulate the fluid induced movement of a body, for everything from a tanker listing under heavy seas to an aerodynamic body tumbling in free fall.
