Dear all,
We are looking for cfd software for the following applications: - Indoor air quality (CO, CO2, ect) - Wind around buildings (virtual wind tunnel) - Indoor climate (temperature, flow, radiation, preferably also output of PPD, PMV ect.) - preferably also indoor fire I'm looking for: - well-validated software (literature refs) - options for input from autodesk revit - steady and transient - preferably both orthagonal and unstructured grid - robust and stable solver - preferably with auto meshing (+customizable) - output of grid quality factors (expansion ratio ect) - output of balances, residuals, Y+ values ect. - not too expensive (so FLUENT/CFX are not my favorites in this respect) - user friendly, clear documentation, good user support For fire we allready use FDS, so that's not a must, though a drawback is that only orthogonal grids are possible and there's no cut-cell option. Also grid manipulation and output viewer (smokeview) could be improved. I have experience also with phoenics which can be used for all applications but in my opioning it's very user-unfriendly and gridding and attaining convergence is often a very timeconsuming process. So, any suggestions? |
