Objective:
Learn about the CFD options possible with nTopSolution:
There are different pathways for you to export your geometry out of nTop and run CFD. You can choose the path based on your requirements:| Integration | Solver Technology | Best Used For | |
|---|---|---|---|
| Tools for Rapid Iteration / Design Exploration | |||
| nTop Fluids | Native | Lattice Boltzmann (LBM) | Internal flow |
| SimScale | Implicit Interop | Immersed Boundary (IBM) | Conjugate heat transfer |
| Luminary Cloud | Implicit Interop | RANS (GPU-based) | External aerodynamics |
| Hexagon scSTREAM | Implicit Interop | Immersed Boundary (IBM) | Electronics cooling |
| Tools for Design Validation | |||
| Ansys Fluent | Mesh-based translation | RANS (CPU/GPU) | Any |
| Siemens Simcenter Star CCM+ | Mesh-based translation | RANS | Any |
