STAR-CCM+
Simcenter STAR-CCM+ supports multidisciplinary computational fluid and thermal simulation.
On the software discovery list. Connector development and release dates have not been announced.
Workflow ideas
Create a simulation workflow
Start from the fluid domain, geometry cleanup and meshing intent. In the intended STAR-CCM+ preview, create a simulation workflow; the visible result is a domain view with regions, interfaces and mesh controls exposed. Review watertightness, scale, near-wall treatment and cell quality before accepting or exporting it.
Configure physics and meshing
Begin with the selected fluids, boundaries and physics models. In the intended STAR-CCM+ preview, configure physics and meshing; the visible result is a configured case with inlet, outlet, wall and solver settings visible. Review physical assumptions, reference values and convergence monitors before accepting or exporting it.
Assess convergence and design trends
Use the result fields, monitor history and balance reports. In the intended STAR-CCM+ preview, assess convergence and design trends; the visible result is contours and performance quantities tied to the solved domain. Review residuals, conservation, mesh sensitivity and expected flow behaviour before accepting or exporting it.
