fluidyn MP CAF

fluidyn-MP CAF  has been specially developed to calculate the acoustic modes in internal flow systems. The acoustic resonance modes may significantly effect coupling with other physical phenomena (vibrations, flows, heat exchanges).

fluidyn-MP CAF  can simultaneously model fluid and acoustic flows.  The flow calculations are run under the same conditions as with the software  fluidyn-MP NS. Speed and temperature can also be taken into account during the eigen mode calculations.  fluidyn-MP CAF can also  propagate acoustic waves in non-homogenous medium. 

 fluidyn-MP CAF can also perform vibratory calculations of structures if required.  

fluidyn-MP CAF helps to determine the acoustic eigen modes in internal flow systems. The coupling of fluidyn-MP CAF with other softwares developed by Transoft (flow calculations, structural behaviours, chemical reactions) helps to predict and solve acoustic resonance problems in these systems.

Model setup 

fluidyn-MP CAF  consists of a pre-processor, solver and post-processor. The solution progress can be monitored manually in case of complex problems. The graphical user interface is completely menu-driven, user-friendly and easy to use. Detailed on-line help is available to rapidly create different simulation conditions.  

APPLICATION OF SOFTWARE

The development of  fluidyn-MP CAF  is mainly based on the following  criteria :       

Simultaneous access to pre-processor, post-processor and solver with the help of an interactive menu. For example, Results of different scenarios can be compared on the same screen and results of  the studies can be determined interactively.

Modularity

To save computational time, a modular structure independent of the solver batch version is available. fluidyn-MP CAF can run on a wide range of  platforms including DOS, WINDOWS and UNIX.  

GEOMETRY AND MESH GENERATION

The user should first define the computational domain and its characteristics with the help of  the GUI and the integrated mesh generator automatically generates the mesh. This helps the user to mesh complex geometries. The same mesh can be used for both fluid and acoustic flows. fluidyn-MP CAF can also import and mesh GIS and DXF files.
