Description

FireFlow Studio for FDS serves as a comprehensive Windows graphical user interface for the Fire Dynamics Simulator (FDS) developed by NIST, designed by a professional fire safety engineer specifically for fire engineering firms. This application streamlines the entire process within a single platform, offering features such as 3-D geometry design through DXF floor-plan tracing and automatic voxelization for curves, a multi-mesh configuration with visible cell displays and MPI partitioning, as well as an intuitive fire-design wizard that includes a D* flame-resolution calculator. Users can initiate simulations of the unmodified FDS solver with just one click while monitoring heat release rates (HRR) and device outputs in real time. Furthermore, it boasts an integrated 3-D results viewer that provides slices, boundary quantities, smoke visualizations, scenario-comparison tabs, and options for exporting data as CSV or PNG files. The software also incorporates a built-in finite-element heat-transfer solver that is coupled live with the ongoing FDS simulation, allowing for real-time tracking of structural steel temperatures as the fire progresses, eliminating the need for any external FEA software. Additionally, it supports round-tripping of hand-written FDS decks, enhancing its versatility for advanced users.

Description

Particleworks is a cutting-edge particle-based software designed for computational analysis and fluid dynamics, specifically for simulating liquid and multiphase flows through the innovative Moving Particle Simulation technique. Its unique mesh-less solver, combined with an easy-to-navigate interface, ensures that even intricate geometries with dynamic components such as gear systems, electric motors, and internal combustion engines can be simulated quickly and efficiently. In contrast to traditional mesh-dependent CFD approaches, Particleworks automatically divides the fluid domain using particles, which simplifies the analysis of various phenomena like free-surface flow, splashing, and sloshing, while also facilitating the study of mixing, lubrication, cooling, oil behavior, water interactions, and the characteristics of highly viscous fluids. Additionally, the software offers a comprehensive graphical user interface that streamlines the entire process from model setup and simulation execution to result visualization and performance assessment, making it an invaluable tool for engineers engaged in fluid dynamics. With its ability to handle complex simulations effectively, Particleworks empowers users to tackle a wide range of industrial applications with confidence.
