I am doing my masters thesis now and am using CFX to simulate the results and findings of Dipl.-Ing. Andreas Gorton-Hülgerth from the Technischen Universität Graz in his paper 'Messung und Berechnung der Geschwindigkeitfelder und Partikelbahn im Gaszyklon' dated December 1998. It's about gas flow in a cyclone. His paper is our reference as he worked with a cyclone unit with D=0.40 meter and H=1.0 meter. The aim of my paper is to successfully adopt his approach and apply this to an industrial-size unit.

CEI’s parallel rendering compositor achieved a speed of 3.17 billion polygons per second using 76 standard dual-processor PCs running on a high-performance networking system. The scene used for testing contained 684 million triangles and ran at a rate of 4.6 frames per second.

Rick Matus, Pointwise’s Vice-President of Sales & Marketing, Nick Wyman, Pointwise’s Manager, Product Development, and Uli Fuchs, founder and President of CFD-Beratung, will take active parts in the meeting.

Our panel of flow modeling experts will be available via an online forum to answer your questions concerning user-defined functions (UDFs). The panel, composed of three PhDs with specialized knowledge in creating and using UDFs, will field questions live via WebEx.

"Where CFD is still often perceived as a complex, scientific discipline, FloWizard now brings the ability to rapidly model flows to all stages in the product design process," said Paul Bemis, Vice President of Marketing at Fluent. "With the release of FloWizard V2, and its availability on our unique Remote Simulation Facility (RSolve), we can now offer flow modeling solutions on large parallel clusters starting at only $7000 per year (US). Offering such a fully integrated solution using a ‘pay as you go' delivery subscription service is yet another 'industry first' introduced by Fluent in the CAE industry."

This year’s event will include the latest updates on our software, technical presentations by users, and lectures from Fluent staff - all designed to help you get the most out of your investment in CFD. You also have the opportunity to meet our hardware and software partners.
