Description
Autodesk CFD is a sophisticated software for computational fluid dynamics that allows engineers and analysts to forecast the behavior of liquids and gases with high accuracy. This tool significantly reduces the reliance on physical prototypes while enhancing understanding of fluid flow performance in various designs. It equips engineers with an extensive suite of robust tools aimed at optimizing system designs, managing thermal issues particularly in electronics cooling, and integrating Building Information Modeling (BIM) to improve occupant comfort in HVAC systems within Architecture, Engineering, and Construction (AEC) and Mechanical, Electrical, and Plumbing (MEP) sectors. Furthermore, the Application Programming Interface (API) and scripting capabilities enhance Autodesk CFD's functionalities, enabling customization and automation of routine tasks through the Decision Center. Additionally, the Decision Center streamlines the process of comparing system designs, thereby accelerating decision-making in design processes. This comprehensive approach not only improves efficiency but also empowers engineers to make more informed decisions in their projects.
Description
MFiX, which stands for Multiphase Flow with Interphase eXchanges, serves as an open-source solver designed for multiphase flow and is recognized as NETL’s primary suite of computational fluid dynamics tools for simulating reacting multiphase flows. It has established itself as a benchmark for the comparison, implementation, and assessment of constitutive models in multiphase flow scenarios and has been utilized across a wide variety of multiphase flow devices and industrial applications. Offering various modeling techniques, MFiX includes the Two-Fluid Model, Discrete Element Model, Coarse-Grained Particle DEM, Superquadric Particle DEM, Glued-Sphere Particle DEM, Particle-in-Cell model, hybrid approaches, and a dedicated single-phase solver tailored for granular flows. These advanced models enable the simulation of numerous systems such as gasifiers, circulating fluidized bed combustors, fluidized beds, fluid catalytic crackers, and chemical looping combustion systems, addressing complex interactions involving hydrodynamics, heat transfer, species transport, and various chemical reactions. As a result, MFiX contributes significantly to the understanding and optimization of these intricate processes in both research and industrial settings.
