Read the review for the full details, but the conclusion is that you get what you pay for.

Exa has won the support of a number of automotive manufacturers by modeling not only their test vehicles, but the entire wind tunnel as well. This provided the automotive engineers with a true comparison between the test and analysis results. The CFD results correlated very well.

Now that CFD analysis is viewed as a valuable analysis tool, Exa is promoting analysis early in the design process.

“It’s a real ‘What if?’ tool,” says Stephen Remondi, president, CEO, and co-founder of Exa Corp. “Since you can change your model quickly, cost effectively and have confidence in the simulation, you’re able to try out more aggressive, more creative ideas in the time available.” While it’s presently in the domain of engineers and aerodynamicists, they’re working on a digital interface for designers so that 3D models will be, in effect, “sculpted” as if they were in clay.

Also new to this release is GAMBIT's ability to automatically refine the mesh in areas of strong curvature and near small gaps. An example of this technology was displayed in the IMR Meshing Maestro award-winning mesh.

A new version of G/Turbo has also been released with GAMBIT 2.0. G/Turbo is an application specific pre-processor integrated into the GAMBIT interface. G/Turbo is a tool which enables the rapid generation of meshes for turbomachinery applications. A unique feature of the pre-processor is the ability to create both structured and unstructured meshes. This allows simple geometries to be created very quickly while also providing a path for analysis of more complex models. G/Turbo is supplied as an add-on to GAMBIT 2.0.

Trade and Technologies France SA (TTF) develops and markets solutions for CAD model interoperability. adapco will integrate TTF CAD libraries into their software for reading the native formats of the major CAD systems independently of the CAD license.

"We are looking forward to working with TTF towards our goal of bringing our CFD tools more truly into the CAE design engineering environment than has ever been achieved in the fluid flow simulation market", said Steve MacDonald ,chief executive of the CD adapco Group.

The card features 128MB of DDR memory, industry-leading optimized Workstation OpenGL performance, DVD video playback as well as support for 3D resolutions (32-bit color) up to 2048 X 1536 pixels, digital flat panel and various configurations of multiple displays.
