Fidelity CFD Mesh Adaptation that Respects Geometry and Reduces Runtime

Mesh adaptation can be used to help improve simulation efficiency. Unstructured mesh adaptation has been used to reduce the mesh size while achieving the desired solution accuracy. This technique enables significant improvements in processing time, memory requirements, and storage needed. However, without access to the underlying CAD geometry, adaptation is limited only to improving off-body grid resolution. Fortunately, the mesh adaptation technique in Fidelity Pointwise respects the geometry, improves the mesh quality, adapts to the near-wall shear layers, and reduces run-time for improved CFD solutions.

CadenceTECHTALK: Generate the Best Mesh Every Time – Automatically

Unstructured meshing can automate much of the mesh generation process, saving significant engineering time and cost. However, controlling numerical errors resulting from the discrete mesh requires adaptation to the developing solution. Join this webinar to learn how Cadence CFD mesh adaptation methods use a continuous-size field that gets updated as the solution progresses. As a result, adherence to the underlying CAD geometry is maintained, and mesh quality is ensured. Register today and join us on 13 Dec for this live webinar.

HiFiLeD Symposium 2022

Join us in Brussels at the HiFiLeD Symposium on 14-16 Dec. The topics will range from issues concerning the complexity, reliability, accuracy, and uncertainties in generating the High-Fidelity LES/DNS data to their application towards turbulence and transition modeling. It will include progress on the underlying high-order numerical methods (HOMs), innovative approaches for CPU acceleration for LES and DNS, exploitation of massive parallel architectures, efficient post-processing on massive parallel hardware, innovative machine learning methods, as well as experimental data. Moreover, the Symposium offers the opportunity to communicate and exchange knowledge for academic researchers, graduate students, industrial engineers, as well as industrial R&D managers and consultants working in the fields of turbulent flow modeling, simulations, measurements, and multidisciplinary CFD applications. There's still time to register.
