granuleworks
ICEMM, empresa especializada en simulación CFD-DEM, es ahora proveedor oficial en España y Portugal del software Particleworks y Granuleworks, dando un gran paso hacia la excelencia y especialización dentro del área de simulación.
Particleworks es un software CAE de CFD sin malla basado en el método Moving Particle simulation (MPS), un enfoque lagrangiano para resolver las ecuaciones de Navier-Stokes, idóneo para flujos multifásicos como chorros de aceite o salpicaduras, con solvers térmico y de aire integrados. Se configura directamente desde el CAD y su solver, fácilmente paralelizable, aprovecha la aceleración multi-GPU permitiendo una alta eficiencia computacional.
Granuleworks, solver DEM complementario con la misma interfaz e idéntica eficiencia en GPU, que permite la simulación acoplada o desacoplada con Particleworks de partículas sólidas.
Particleworks:
Mesh-less simulation
Particleworks is a cutting-edge CAE (Computer Aided Engineering) software based on the innovative, mesh-less Moving Particle Simulation method (a Lagrangian approach) to solve Navier-Stokes equations.
Multi-phase and multi-physics simulations
The Moving Particle Simulation, Mesh-Less Computational Fluid Dynamic (CFD) method, is ideal to analyze multi-phase flows, like oil jets or water splash. Moreover, a thermal solver for fluid and solid temperature predictions as webll as a Finite Volume Method for automatic air simulations is also integrated in the software.
Fast and easy setup for everyone
The mesh-less particle simulation streamlines directly from the CAD, handling intricate geometries and moving components. With its intuitive interface and swift simulation preparation, it facilitates widespread adoption, enabling engineers to take advantage of difital models.
GPU-accelerated results
Moving Particle Simulation is easily paralelizable, making multi-GPU acceleration possible with a linear decrease of simulation times when the number of GPUs is increased.
