Computational Fluid Dynamics (CFD) simulations have gained popularity due to a large increase in computer power and development of feasible numerical methods. However, geometry import and mesh generation are still the most time-consuming parts of CFD simulations, or at least until now.
CF-MESH+® is an easy-to-use CFD meshing product provided by Creative Fields that works with precise and imprecise geometry. The software provides automatic meshing workflows with an intuitive user interface that allows for superior user experience and productivity. CF-MESH+ generates very large and complex volume meshes in only a fraction of the time and effort needed by most CFD meshing software. The meshes generated by CF-MESH+ have been successfully used in various types of CFD simulations, from the automotive aerodynamics, hydrodynamics, human hemodynamics (blood vessels), HVAC, to chemical processing, and civil engineering.
CF-MESH+ meshing setup is designed to be simple and intuitive with an easy-to-navigate graphical user interface for novice users leveraging advanced meshing capabilities that allow generation of industrial quality meshes in fully automatic fashion.
- Boundary layers: A simplified boundary layer setup & iterative boundary layer creation procedure is available where the user only prescribes the desired boundary layer number and thickness parameters.
- Refinement: Simple creation of refinement regions is provided where the regions can be boundaries, selected patches/faces/edges/vertices, primitive objects, or auxiliary surface meshes.
- Anisotropic meshing: Anisotropic settings and anisotropic grading are available.
- Gaps and thin features: Global and local options are available to preserve or remove cells in thin gaps.
- Feature edges: Supports feature edges that need to be captured in the mesh.
- Robust: CF-MESH+ performs surface wrapping and volume meshing at the same time while requiring minimum user input and providing maximum tolerance to input geometry.
- Parallelisation: Most of the meshing algorithms are SMP parallelised for maximum performance.
- Meshing Algorithms: Cartesian 2D and 3D meshes, hexahedral meshes, tetrahedral meshes and arbitrary polyhedral meshes.
- Input: Triangulated surface input formats: STL, STLB, FMS.
- Output mesh formats: OpenFOAM, ANSYS Fluent, CGNS, AVL Fire.
Creative Fields was founded in 2014 to become a CFD meshing champion by providing competitive and creative solutions to meet CFD meshing needs. Their focus is to be at the frontiers of the latest developments in CFD meshing while enabling the best value-for-money proposition on the market.
