Improving Product Design & Development

By leveraging our unique, inherently transient Lattice Boltzmann-based physics PowerFLOW CFD software performs fluid flow simulations that accurately predict real world conditions. Using the PowerFLOW suite, engineers evaluate product performance early in the design process prior to any prototype being built — when the impact of change is most significant for design and budgets. PowerFLOW imports fully complex model geometry and accurately and efficiently performs aerodynamic, aeroacoustic and thermal management simulations.
