Are you thinking of upgrading your CFD solution? Are you new to CFD and want to try out an easy-to-use code to introduce you to the benefits, process and terminology of flow simulation?

Why not try CD-adapco’s “next generation” solution STAR-CCM+, complete with an extensive set of example cases, for FREE?

CD-adapco has produced a package specifically designed to introduce new users to STAR-CCM+ and CFD. The package includes a license free, a cut-down version of STAR-CCM+ and a set of tutorials that introduce just some of STAR-CCM+’s capabilities. STAR-CCM+ delivers powerful flow and thermal modeling capabilities in an easy-to-use environment.

The examples include: internal and external flows; polyhedral and hexahedral meshes; laminar and turbulent flow; convection and buoyancy; and sub- to super-sonic flow. The tutorials take you from mesh import, to model set-up, run and post-processing. Each of the cases is small enough to run on a desktop PC and comes with references to popular CFD texts for more in-depth know-how.

“STAR-CCM+ is the most easy-to-use CFD solution on the market,” says Dr Dennis Nagy, CD-adapco’s Director of Business Development. “This free trial version with example cases is an ideal opportunity for engineers to find out what they’re missing, and the best bit is that it doesn’t cost a thing!”

With the imminent release of STAR-CCM+ V2, which adds meshing and even more advanced physics to STAR-CCM+’s list of benefits, now is the perfect time to find out more. For full details, visit http://www.cd-adapco.com/products/STAR-CCM_plus/index.html
