These projects support the goal of developing a zero emissions coal-fired power plant, along with related policy initiatives in energy, climate, and hydrogen, including the FutureGen zero-emissions power plant of the future.

On March 16, 2005, U.S. Secretary of Energy, Samuel Bodman, announced the Fluent award as part of a portfolio of $62.4 million for 32 clean coal research projects.

For example, in a benchmark test designed to measure turnaround time, a 16-processor Cray XD1 system running SC/Tetra completed a complex problem two times faster than a similarly configured 3.6-GHz Xenon cluster. When more processors were added to assess the systems’ scalability, Cray XD1 performance held steady at up to 64 processors, while the performance of the Xenon cluster dropped off rapidly.

The course is appropriate for those with a basic understanding of the CFD process who wish to learn more about the issues related to the accurate simulation of turbulent flows.

Optimization of air quality methodology and equipment relies on flow and thermal distribution, whether in an overfire air system, an SCR, FGD,or mercury control system. The use of flow modeling can ensure proper design and installation of equipment while reducing physical testing to ensure both compliance and cost effectiveness.

If you’re happy with the simple plots available from many sources, MS Excel for example, don’t bother changing. But if you find your needs growing more sophisticated, then have a look at Tecplot 10. With its large variety of plots, high level of available customization, and extensive import/export facilities, it should meet the needs those who need moderate to complex functionality.

The pace of development in the aerospace market is accelerating faster than ever and the role of CAE tools is a major part of todays product development processes.

This seminar will provide the attendees with an up-to-date overview of how the latest CAE technologies are being applied to Aerospace products.
