Join population balance experts Dr. Allan Myerson of IIT and Dr. Kumar Dhanasekharan of Fluent Inc. in this seminar to learn about predicting size distribution along with transport phenomena and chemical reactions.

Who Should Attend this Presentation?

This seminar will provide an introduction to population balance methods in CFD. Engineers, engineering managers, and scientists dealing with particle/ bubble/ droplet size distribution in their process or with applications such as crystallization, fluidization, bubble columns, etc. would benefit from this informative webinar.

No prior experience with population balance methods or CFD is necessary.

Today's advanced CFD simulations require increased model fidelity and accuracy to meet the expectation of faster solutions and quicker turnaround times. To accomplish this requires increased computing resources, so many industries are turning to Cluster Computing environments as a cost- effective, robust solution. This webinar is a great opportunity to learn more about this new technology and how to effectively deploy it within your organization.

Design optimization process is a key task for thermal designers, and OptimizeIt completely automates it. Typically, design optimization involves setting up and solving multiple cases and then comparing results to find the best performing design. With Coolit v5.55, the user now simply defines what design parameters can be varied and the objective of the design. Once the problem is defined, Coolit takes over automatically setting up and solving the cases, and reporting the computed results identifying the best design.

OptimizeIt is just one of many enhancements in Coolit v5.55. Others include the ability to enter component positions and other quantities as an arithmetic function rather than a number, significantly improved model viewing and manipulation options. There are also solver algorithm advancements that improve convergence speed for certain classes of problems by an order of magnitude. Coolit v5.55 is available for delivery now.

Built on ACUITIV’s cutting-edge architecture which is based on VR Juggler™ and OpenGL™, ACUITIV v4.0 provides customers with a new suite of interactive tools for transient model visualization, multi-PC visualization sessions, and steady-state model support. ACUITIV v4.0 opens new avenues for engineers, designers, and marketers to assist in their efforts to dramatically reduce time and cost of analysis, as a single solution can now be used enterprise-wide to analyze, communicate and collaborate on a design.

AMD has announced the availability of AMD Core Math Library (ACML) version 2.0, an advanced tool that allows software developers to further exploit the large memory space and ground-breaking performance enhancements offered by the AMD64 architecture.

ACML 2.0 provides an expanded feature set, optimization of existing features and improved performance. Developers using ACML 2.0 can achieve greater code accuracy and speed of delivery while maximizing performance and functionality of x86-based applications running on 32-bit Windows® and 32- and 64-bit Linux operating systems. ACML 2.0 also helps build the foundation for the Windows software developer in preparation for 64-bit capable Windows availability.
