HEEDS had it already! But now, since version 2021.1, Simcenter STAR-CCM+ lets you create Surrogate Models (Meta-Models or simply Response Surfaces) directly in Design Manager as well. This is great news and Simcenter STAR-CCM+ provides today multiple relevant benefits: complex flow simulations which may take hours or days to be evaluated, can be replaced by …
This week we will look at the directed mesher in Simcenter STAR-CCM+. We will see how to use the directed mesher in a case where we have a narrow passage in a rotational geometry. In a situation like that, your meshing process can both be simplified, and your cell count greatly reduced by using the …
Wizard FloEFD This week, I have created a video tutorial about how to set up the wizard in Simcenter FloEFD. The wizard is where you set all the global settings for your simulation. Which is the first step to get your simulation started. Watch the video below for guidence, and some tips about the setup. …
This week, we will look at radiation, focusing on S2S (surface to surface) radiation in Simcenter STAR-CCM+. We will look at some things to consider when including radiation, how to use it efficiently and how to understand it. We will also go over the different radiation models in Simcenter STAR-CCM+ to understand when to use …
STAR-CCM+ Marine simulation We love our marine customers! And so does Siemens. Hence they continuously develop Simcenter STAR-CCM+ such that we marine engineers always have the right tools at our finger tips. In this week´s blog I just want to give you a short overview of marine related methods which utilize the feature and functionality …
FloEFD Introduction and purpose This week, I will show you a simulation from the software Simcenter FloEFD. This blog post will be a tutorial of how to set up and run a simulation in Simcenter FloEFD. Simcenter FloEFD is a CFD-tool to simulate mainly flow and heat transfer, just like Simcenter STAR-CCM+, but the software …

STAR-CCM+ visualization tools The visualization tools in Simcenter STAR-CCM+ are integrated with the analysis, allowing for the interactive extraction and viewing of solution data from either a running or converged simulation. This makes it possible for you to watch a flow field evolve as the simulation iterates and immediately see the effects of those changes. …
STAR-CCM+ This week, we will look at the news that are left from the 2020.3 release of Simcenter STAR-CCM+. We know that we have reached the year 2021 now, but there are still some interesting updates not previously mentioned in the Volupe blog. The focus this time will be mainly the topics not handled in …
Diverged simulation? How to find high residual cells! Together with a best practice check list! All CFD engineers will unfortunately experience diverged simulations, so what to do to correct the simulation and obtain the desired results? With Simcenter STAR-CCM+ there are several checks you can do to find the issue with your simulation, where in …

In one night around the world must be very exhausting for you and your reindeers. But don´t worry Simcenter STAR-CCM+ can be at your fingertips to make life easier! I took the liberty to investigate your reindeer’s assembly configuration for optimal drafting. However, unlike drafting for bicycle groups, I also wanted to help your reindeers …
