Caedium RANS Flow

What is Caedium RANS Flow?

Caedium RANS Flow simulates the realistic flow of gas (viscous) (e.g., air) and liquid (e.g. water) with heat transfer using the state-of-the-art Computational Fluid Dynamics (CFD) software.

Caedium RANS Flow makes it easy to simulate a complex flow of fluids around and through its design with Caedium's easy-to-use visualization tools, which provide information about the physical effects of the fluid on your design and vice versa. Improve simulation response time with unlimited parallel calculations.

Caedium RANS Flow uses a customized version of OpenFOAM® capable of simulating complex fluid flows and heat transfer in virtually any configuration, whether in the external flow of an aircraft, car, yacht or submersible, or in internal flow through a computer box, mining drill, pipeline, or pipeline.

You can determine the performance of your project using Caedium's 3D visualization and reporting tools for quantities such as speed, pressure, forces (e.g., lift and drag) and moments.

Caedium RANS Flow is more applicable than the Caedium Panel Flow add-on, but requires a volume mesh and therefore potentially longer simulation runtimes.

Caedium RANS Flow, which also includes Caedium Transient, is a fully integrated complement to Caedium - a unified simulation environment.
