Hello, I’m Julio Mendez, a CFD Scientist currently working at Corrdesa and using CFD to study electrochemical applications.

My journey in CFD started in 2007 when I was looking for a topic for my undergraduate thesis at La Universidad del Zulia in…

Hi, I’m Joshua Strodtbeck, and I’m a Product Management Director at Cadence Design Systems and I do product management for Fidelity CFD. I first dipped my toes in industrial CFD at Rolls-Royce in 2006, when I did an LES simulation as an intern, and I…

As a CFD practitioner, have you experienced difficulty in generating meshes in regions where the flow changes rapidly, especially along the boundary layer or wall boundary? At your rescue is the Fidelity Pointwise T-Rex meshing for near-body or boundary…

The big, powerful features such as unstructured quadrilateral surface meshing, unstructured hexahedral layer extrusion in the anisotropic tetrahedral extrusion (T-Rex) technique, and tetrahedral mesh clustering sources often overshadow the small yet formidable…

Mesh generation is where the user’s expertise and ingenuity can influence the convergence and accuracy of a computational fluid dynamics (CFD) solution by selecting mesh type, topology, and cell quality. But with the rush to automate mesh generation,…

Tip clearance flow is the flow that passes through the small clearance gaps between rotating and stationary components of a turbomachine. The size and shape of such gaps are directly linked to the turbomachine’s aerodynamic performance in terms of efficiency…

When it comes to cars, motorcycles, and power equipment, Honda is a household name and is one of the world’s largest automobile manufacturers. A crucial phase in the development cycle for automobiles is the functional reassurance of engines, specifically…

Join our live webinar next Tuesday to learn more about this subject.

Introduction

Despite the evolution of computer processing capability, improving the efficiency of numerical simulations remains critical. In CFD simulations, the key factor impacting…

Hi, I’m Samuel Afari and I’m a CFD Applications Engineering Intern at Cadence. I am currently a PhD candidate at Embry-Riddle Aeronautical University in Daytona Beach, Florida. I also did my MSc in Aerospace Engineering at the same school, under Dr. Reda…

The Golden Rule of mesh generation is to produce a mesh that provides a foundation for an accurate and converged computational fluid dynamics (CFD) solution. One might say that meshing experts know how to enforce the Golden Rule. On the contrary, only…
