Events: STAR Konferenz Deutschland 2007

Posted Tue September 11, 2007 @10:57PM

STAR Konferenz Deutschland 2007 will be held 6-7 November 2007 at the Hilton Hotel, Nuremberg.

Fluid Dynamics and Structural Mechanics have, until now, been separate disciplines, divided by a disparate set of simulation tools and methodologies. Join the CAE Revolution at our STAR Konferenz Deutschland 2007, when CD-adapco will be demolishing the simulation barrier between flow and stress and introducing the first finite-volume CFD code capable of simulating industrial flow, thermal and stress problems in a single solver.

Fluid Simulation Reduces Valve Prototype Development Time

Posted Fri September 07, 2007 @07:53AM

Aerospace valve manufacturer Shaw Aero Devices, Inc., Naples, Florida, saved at least $9000 and three months in prototyping costs by using Flomerics’ EFD.Lab computational fluid dynamics (CFD) software to iterate to an optimized design.

The CFD results for each iteration provided insights into how the design could be improved. Rob Preble, Project Engineer for Shaw, created a design that provided the required pressure drop without the need to build a single hardware prototype.
