Version 9.3 of FLOW-3D offers more powerful solutions for a wider variety of multiphysics modeling environments, and includes further improvements to simulation speed, ease of use, and ability to secure powerful, meaningful results.

“This new release has a lot to offer engineers in every one of our industrial segments,” said Dr. Michael Barkhudarov, Flow Science’s Vice President of Research & Development, in kicking off the release. “Version 9.3 will help users manage their FLOW-3D simulations better and make design optimization an easier task. The many new and extended models we’ve incorporated significantly expand our multiphysics capabilities.”

New features include:

• Fully-coupled fluid-structure interaction with elastic membranes and elastically-flexing walls
• Evaporation residue model
• Two-component, vapor/non-condensable gas model, with evaporation/condensation
• Thermally-active layers in walls
• Moving object assemblies
• Intensification pressure for microporosity model
• Volume flow rate boundary condition
• Ability to change solver parameters while the solver runs
• Navigator to manage and launch multiple simulations
• Numerous new solver output options

Flow Science has commenced shipment of the new release to customers under maintenance contracts.
