CD-adapco, the largest privately held CFD-focused provider of Computer AidedEngineering software, has released the release 10.04.011-R8 (double precision)of STAR-CCM+, the second release in 2015 of its flagship simulation tool. Thelatest release represents a major step forward in the company’s vision ofallowing its customers to “discover better designs, faster” usingMultidisciplinary Design eXploration (MDX).
The highlight of the v10.04 release is an entirely new Finite Element BasedSolid Stress Solver, enabling Computational Solid Mechanics from withinSTAR-CCM+. This engineering breakthrough makes STAR-CCM+ the first tool on themarket to offer both Computational Fluid Dynamics and Computational SolidMechanics from a single and easy-to-use fully integrated environment. STAR-CCM+offers the most efficient way of modeling Fluid Structure Interaction problems.
STAR-CCM+ 10.04 continues the v10 theme of providing enhancements to makecustomers infinitely more competitive and effective in their marketplacethrough the pillars of technology, experience and productivity.
Technology: In addition to the introduction of Computational Solid Mechanics inSTAR-CCM+, another major step forward in v10.04 is the implementation of theAdjoint Solver for Coupled Solid Energy, enabling sensitivity analysis of solidconduction problems. This solver can be used in conjunction with the adjointflow solver for performing sensitivity analysis and optimization for problemsinvolving conjugate heat transfer. This is a unique capability that will enableengineers to speed up their design process while including the effects ofconjugate heat transfer.
The introduction of reference geometry transfer through the STAR-CAD clientsnow allows the user to pass more data from their CAD package to STAR-CCM+,including transfer coordinate systems and reference planes and these areautomatically synchronized during updates. This functionality enables easyboundary condition creation and post-processing based on CAD references whileleveraging the strengths of STAR-CCM+
Experience: STAR-CCM+ 10.04 delivers 22 new colormaps to furtherstreamline the visualization workflow and help users gain a betterunderstanding of their simulation results through high impact scientificvisualization.
For improved monitoring and control during a design exploration cycle, 10.04delivers a brand-new tab in the Optimate interface, giving users the ability toget live updates of simulation progress during the design process. This featurehelps save engineering time by offering instant feedback on how the design isprogressing and enables troubleshooting if required.
STAR-CCM+ 10.04 also adds enhancements to Custom Summary Reports, allowing thecreation of well-formatted, customized summaries of specific objects within thesimulation. This helps an engineer to quickly review simulation file contentwithout opening the file and facilitates comparing results from differentsimulations.
Productivity: A unique productivity improvement in v10.04 is theintroduction of Boundary Data Export for Simulation History. This capabilityreduces the size of the simulation history files and increases the overallperformance by delivering the ability to save results for boundaries only.
Another new capability in 10.04 to significantly improve productivity is theEquilibrium DFBI Motion Type for sink and trim calculations in the MarineIndustry. This feature is suitable for scenarios where a force and momentbalance can ultimately exist in equilibrium and drastically reducescomputational expense compared to a time-accurate unsteady free motionsimulations.
STAR-CCM+ v10.04 possesses many new features drawn from suggestions submittedthrough IdeaStorm, the innovation forum exclusive to CD-adapco customers. Thecompany is committed to three major releases each year to ensure it isdelivering on its vision for the software and, at the same time, supporting theongoing needs of its customers.
