Detailed information

• 

  Fluid analysis (LES), which previously took about a week even with supercomputers with thousands of cores, can now be computed in just 2 days with Altair ultraFluidX. When combined with GPU cloud, it enables wind resistance analysis for high-rise buildings in a short timeframe.

• 

  Altair ultraFluidX is a simulation tool that can predict the aerodynamic performance of passenger cars, large vehicles, and racing cars at ultra-high speeds, as well as evaluate the aerodynamics of buildings and environments. Optimized for GPU computing, it delivers unparalleled high performance with cutting-edge technology and can complete complex simulations overnight on a single server.

• 

  Designs that have never been seen before (such as those using rearview camera mirrors) can also be evaluated.

• 

  High-speed simulation essential in the motorsports industry By calculating aerodynamic forces and moments (such as lift, drag, roll, pitch, and yaw) and examining the unsteady three-dimensional flow structure, one can understand the fluid dynamics of the vehicle. CFD analysis can also be applied to minimize air drag to improve fuel efficiency, adjust the lift ratio between the front and rear to enhance driving stability, or investigate behavior during crosswind conditions.
