SIEMENS INDUSTRY SOFTWARE LTD

CD-adapco solutions include STAR-CCM+, a leading multi-disciplinary engineering simulation software that can be run in a standalone mode or from within CAD/PLM software.  STAR-CAT5 is a CATIA V5-embedded solution that can help users manage flow, stress, and thermal problems from their familiar CATIA V5 PLM environment.  This approach delivers a number of compelling benefits over the traditional simulation process:

• Designers, engineers, and analysts are not required to learn a specialist simulation tool
• Associativity with parametric CAD models allows easy modification of parts without the need to redefine units, materials or boundary conditions, saving time and improving productivity.
• The simulation is directly associated with the geometry, enabling interactive as well as automated parametric what-if design evaluations for optimization.
• A unique and proven technology, the polyhedral cells, brings speed, solution stability, and more accuracy for CFD simulations than tetrahedral elements.

The problem set-up and input/output requirements have been automated and integrated into the CATIA V5 PLM environment, so users can concentrate on evaluating engineering results and optimizing designs and take full advantage of  CD-adapco's advanced simulation technology
