CFD-FASTRAN Fluid Dynamics Module

CFD-FASTRAN solves the full Navier-Stokes equations using a density-based finite- volume formulation and higher order differencing schemes for the accurate prediction of subsonic, transonic or hypersonic flows. The salient features of the solver include the following:
  • Steady state and unsteady calculations
  • Roe and Van-Leer upwinding flux functions
  • Second and third order accurate schemes using the MUSCL approach with Min-Mod, Osher-Chakravarthy and Van Leer limiters
  • Multi-stage explicit Runge-Kutta, Point implicit and fully implicit time integration schemes
  • k-e, k-w*, Baldwin-Lomax, Spalart-Allmaras and Menter-SST* turbulence models
  • Supports multi-block structured, general unstructured (arbitrary type elements) and chimera overset meshes

The CFD-FASTRAN flow solver has been extensively validated on numerous benchmark problems and has been successfully used for many complex aerospace applications. Please visit Aeromechanics Applications for more information.

* Only available for structured meshes
