Post-processing inbuilt in Rhino including iso-surfaces, surface contours and streamlines.

Relational Data input without re-compiling.Numerous turbulence model options including RANS and LES.PHOENICS structured sequential CFD solver.PARSOL cut-cell geometry detection simplifying the mesh generation process.Cartesian and Cylindrical Polar co-ordinate meshes.RhinoCFD’s breadth of scope allows you to simulate complex phenomena such as multiple-phase and compressible flow, heat transfer both inside solids and between solids and fluids, radiation modelling and non-Newtonian flows. It also makes a complex subject matter accessible to many new users, reducing the learning curve necessary to perform the investigations. With RhinoCFD, Computational Fluid Dynamics is now available for Rhino3d users without having to leave the Rhino environment. Transportation: Drag reduction, combustion processes, emissions testing.Medical: Arterial flow, respiratory flow, effects of non-Newtonian fluids.Aerospace: Aerodynamics, turbomachinery, heat management.Jewellery: Investment casting optimization.Architecture and building services: External/internal ventilation, HVAC, contaminant dispersion.Marine: design of hulls, sails, propellers.Have a look at the full list (and what it all means) here!įor older versions please contact can be used in any area where fluids may have an impact on a design and therefore its applications are numerous and is already used in a wide variety of industries including: A new comfort index is available: Universal Thermal Climate Index.The Dutch and Belgian Fire standards are now selectable.Wind conditions can now by specified via Weibull coefficients.A new aerosol deposition model is available.We also have some improvements that are specific to FLAIR, our built environment module: Auto calculation of time step in transients.New Post processing panel to simplify creating plots and produce higher quality results processing.

Here's a snapshot of a couple of the more exciting upgrades: It allows users to investigate the interaction of their model with the surrounding fluid, thus enabling rapid optimization and testing without leaving the familiarity of the Rhino environment. CHAM presents RhinoCFD, a general purpose Computational Fluid Dynamics (CFD) software plugin, built directly into the Rhino environment and powered by CHAM's PHOENICS.
