Webinar details

Recent advancements in computational fluid dynamics (CFD) have been significantly driven by software innovations that enhance simulation accuracy, efficiency, and accessibility. Modern CFD software now leverages high-performance computing (HPC) and cloud-based platforms, enabling engineers to solve complex fluid flow problems more quickly and with greater precision. These tools are increasingly utilizing adaptive mesh refinement (AMR) techniques, which dynamically adjust the resolution of the simulation grid based on the flow characteristics, allowing for finer details in critical regions while conserving computational resources. Additionally, the integration of machine learning algorithms into CFD workflows has improved the ability to predict turbulent flows and optimize designs by reducing the need for exhaustive trial-and-error simulations.

Moreover, the development of user-friendly interfaces and the rise of open-source platforms has broadened the accessibility of these tools beyond traditional experts. Software packages like OpenFOAM and commercial options such as ANSYS Fluent and COMSOL Multiphysics have incorporated more intuitive graphical user interfaces (GUIs), automated setup processes, and comprehensive libraries of pre-configured models. This has empowered a wider range of industries and researchers to adopt CFD for applications ranging from aerospace and automotive to environmental modelling and biomedical engineering. The ongoing trend towards Multiphysics simulations, where CFD is integrated with other physical phenomena like structural mechanics or heat transfer, also reflects the growing sophistication and versatility of modern CFD software.
