Siemens STAR-CCM+ v12.02 simulation software

Wednesday, 15 March, 2017 | Supplied by: Siemens Ltd


The latest release of Siemens’s STAR-CCM+ software includes several features to help product development organisations enhance and accelerate their ability to digitally simulate and understand how a product will perform in the real world using the digital twin — a precise virtual model of a product’s physical and performance characteristics.

Digital twin functionality in STAR-CCM+ greatly facilitates this communication using simulation models that not only behave like their real-world counterparts, but also present a precise visual representation.

STAR-CCM+ v12.02 introduces ray tracing, allowing engineers to apply photorealistic renderings to their design and simulation results — utilising similar technology that is used to provide computer-generated imagery (CGI) in movies and computer games. This enhanced visualisation capability is particularly useful when communicating the results of simulations to stakeholders outside of the core simulation community.

The software also adds capabilities to accelerate simulation throughput for products that deal with reacting flows, such as furnaces, reformers, internal combustion engines and gas turbines. The Adaptive Gridding capability for combustion tables reduces computational effort without any loss of accuracy. Applicable to all flamelet combustion models, adaptive gridding can reduce table size and corresponding memory usage by up to 30 times, increasing efficiency and allowing engineers to iterate designs more quickly.

This version also includes multicomponent gas/liquid species and solid ion models used to analyse electrochemical reactions, such as those that occur in solid oxide fuel cells.
