NOGRID Points Software Release 6.2.0 on Market

By Admin  

March 22, 2017

NOGRID points 6.2.0 release is available now. NOGRID points software is based on the meshless Finite Pointset Method (FPM), is a computational fluid dynamics (CFD) software package for simulation tasks.

The company implemented new features as solutions for simulation projects and optimization studies, including:

  • A Bingham-Herschel-Bulkley viscosity model has been implemented.
  • Smoothing of the smoothing length in some H_adaptGeo setups during initial point filling has been accelerated and requirements are less demanding now.
  • A semi-implicit scheme for the bubble algorithm for the vp- solver has been implemented. It replaces a computationally expensive and less stable predictor-corrector scheme.
  • A new keyword BND_free_bubble has been added to simplify the setup of a model with bubbles.
  • For (almost) isolated free surface points in narrow under-resolved gaps, the adjacent wall boundary condition is used to effectively close off those gaps. Otherwise local high velocities might appear, bringing down time step size and increasing computation time.
  • The loading of previous computation results given in Ensight format (either wall points or a volume point cloud) via assign has been repaired. The setting of initial data according to the loaded data has been improved.
