Altair CFD offers a comprehensive set of tools to solve fluid mechanics problems. CFD helps to perform thermal analysis of buildings, predict aerodynamics of vehicles, optimize gearbox oiling, reduce cooling fan noise, or develop innovative medical devices.
Various methods are available in CFD, like:
A general-purpose Navier-Stokes (NS) solver for thermal and general-purpose applications.
A smoothed-particle hydrodynamics (SPH) solver best suited for simulating free surface oiling, sloshing and mixing
A Lattice Boltzmann Method (LBM) solver for aerodynamics and aero-acoustics.
Altair CFD includes all the major CFD technologies, enabling engineers to solve all fluids problems regardless of their industry or application. The unique units-based single license system provides access to all tools. It is scalable, easily deployable, and cost-effective.
Altair’s turnkey on-premises and cloud-based appliances box up software, system administration, and infrastructure as a service, delivering unlimited use of the software.
