Introduction |
|
CFD2000 models fluid flow
problems in engineering equipment, the environment, and in living systems.
Engineers continue to utilize CFD2000 as a design and evaluation tool to
quickly and inexpensively model alternative designs over a range of
parameter values. Scientists use CFD2000 to predict and to better
understand natural flows, including environmental, physiological, and other
types of flows.
CFD2000 is utilized by
industry, research centers, and academic institutions to model fluid flows
in a wide range of applications that include the following: |
|
Aerospace |
|
 |
Aerodynamics including flows over airfoils and aircraft fuselages.
Calculation of lift coefficients, drag, and moments. Flows in ducts,
manifolds, valves, and nozzles. Transient compressible flows,
supersonic flows, and combustion processes. |
|
Automotive |
|
 |
External aerodynamics. Flows in manifolds, valves, and ducts.
Heating and cooling in passenger compartment. Combustion processes inside
cylinders, catalytic exhaust systems. spray
atomization of fuel injectors. |
|

|
 |
Physiological
flows including blood flow in vessels, aneurysms, artificial heart valves,
and natural organs. Flows in biomedical devices including blood pumps,
tubes, and sprays. Non-Newtonian blood viscosity models, two-phase flows,
moving boundaries. |
|
Chemical Processing |
|
 |
Chemically
