CFD Tuesday: Toothpaste 2.0 Squeezing the most out of your simulation with StarCCM+: It's brushing time! #CFD #CAE #engineering #innovation #weenableinnovation #toothpaste

🍂CFD Tuesday - Leaves 🍂 With summer behind us and fall upon us it is time colored leaves! Therefore we simulated these falling leaves this week. Using the discrete element model (DEM) in Simcenter STAR CCM+ we created these beautiful falling leaves. #CFD #CAE #engineering

CFD Tuesday - Spring Damper Velve For this CFD Tuesday we decided to show an illustrative example. The clip shows a CFD simulation of a simple spring damper valve in a pipe. #CFD #CAE #engineering #innovation #weenableinnovation

CFD Tuesday - Last week Jousef Muradmade a post about fusili in a windtunnel, challenging us CFD engineers to create a CFD post of this fusili. Of course, we couldn't resist the call, and the results are in! Check out our simulation!

CFD Tuesday - Cat on broomstick For this post, we decided to model the vorticity around this cat on a broomstick. The cat is flying at reasonable speed through the night air. Let's get into the Halloween spirit even before it arrives! #CFD #FEMTO #Cat #halloween

👻 CFD Tuesday 👻 It's that spooky time of the year again when vegetables get mutilated and used as lawn ornaments. 🎃 In our quest for the perfect Halloween experience, we conjured up this simulation with the power of Simcenter STAR-CCM+. Happy Halloween! 🦇👻 #CFD #FEMTO

CFD Tuesday Femto is awarded the Gold Partner status Of course, that means that we have to dedicate our CFD Tuesday to this special occasion. To celebrate we dipped our Femto logo in a bath of liquid gold paint using Siemens Simcenter STAR-CCM+.

CFD Tuesday In this week's CFD Tuesday we are showcasing a couple of simulations that we perform for the maritime industry using Simcenter STAR-CCM+ #CFD #Engineer #Maritime #Femto #Weenableinnovation

FEM of the month Dive into the tale behind M.C. Escher's Impossible Cube—a mind-bending masterpiece of optical illusion. 🌀 #FEMTO #FEM #Engineering #Simulation #Simcenter #Weenableinnovation

CFD Tuesday Physics options you've never noticed before This week we take a deep dive in the Volume Fraction Reinitialization physics model. The VFR physics model is used in combination with the Volume of Fluid model (VOF) and recreates the interface between water and air.

CFD Tuesday - DEM Linear Cohesion For this week's CFD tuesday, we wanted to highlight a particular model in Meshless Discrete Element Method (DEM) in STAR-CCM+. The linear cohesion particle model can be used to make particles stick together. #DEM #CFD #Engineer #Simulation

CFD Tuesday- DEM particles For this week's CFD tuesday, we wanted to continue on last week's post on Meshless Discrete Element Method (DEM) in Simcenter STAR-CCM+. #cfd #simulation #engineer #femto #weenableinnovation

CFD Tuesday - Going against the flow In this week's CFD Tuesday we would like to kick off our showcases of special pumps with an ancient design still in use today: the Archimedes spiral. #cfd #simulation #femto #weenableinnovation #fluid

CFD Tuesday This week's CFD Tuesday is dedicated to one of our student teams projects, particularly the Eco-Runner Team Delft, who are building a vehicle with extreme mileage while being road legal. #femto #weenableinnovation #cfd #sponsorship #ecorunner #tudelft #simulations

CFD Tuesday We created a wooden bird house of standard size for a coal tit, with wooden walls that have a thickness of 1cm. Using Siemens Simcenter STAR-CCM+ both the air within the bird house and the wooden frame have been modelled. #CFD #Femto #Bird #House

CFD Tuesday In this weeks CFD Tuesday we are looking at a feature in STAR-CCM+ called Mesh morphing, combined with the isentropic gas relations. The isentropic relation defines how the volume, density, pressure and temperature are related for a change in volume. #Femto #CFD

CFD Tuesday Tank trucks are interesting vehicles: they are big, they are shiny and they don't enjoy cornering or braking. They also don't like to be the glas half full/ glas half empty kind of tank. #CFD #engineer #simulation #tank #water

CFD Tuesday Fluid Film Transition In this week, we're showing that transition again. To better illustrate this this, we modelled a block in the domain shown before. The blob of water spreads, hits the block (with a very fine mesh), which creates a wave.

CFD Tuesday - Pump it up (again) This week we are showing another method to simulate the motion of the compression; the Overset mesh. #overset #mesh #CFD #Engineering #Femto #Simulation

CFD Tuesday We've shown the Meshless DEM in Simcenter STAR-CCM+ before, and as time passes we'll likely do so again. #femto #cfd #ticking #simulation #engineering #weenableinnovation
