A smoothed-particle hydrodynamics solver for complex CFD simulation

car being built in CAD software

Simcenter SPH Flow is a rapid meshless computational fluid dynamics (CFD) software that uses the innovative smoothed-particle hydrodynamics (SPH) method. Designers and analysts are provided with a fully integrated workflow to quickly improve their designs earlier in the development cycle.

Simcenter SPH Flow can solve complex applications such as complex topologies and geometries, free surface problems and physics involving fluid-structure interactions. The software includes a fully integrated simulation environment (Simcenter SPH Flow Studio), an intuitive guided user interface for automatic geometry preparation, simulation setup and solution analysis.

A new generation of numerical methods to overcome meshing-related constraints

Simcenter SPH Flow is particularly well suited for highly dynamic flows, deformable and complex boundaries and interfaces with fragmentations/reconnections. The SPH method is part of a new generation of numerical methods, developed to overcome meshing-related constraints with traditional approaches while still being based on the Navier-Stokes equations.

Simcenter SPH flow:

  • Eliminates complex meshing and boundary conditions and meshing-related constraints of traditional approaches
  • Solves dynamic flows with complex interfaces
  • Offers state-of-the-art accuracy, extensive modeling capabilities and industry relevance
