CD-adapco announced the release of STAR-CCM+® v10.06, its flagship engineering simulation solution. This release features the introduction of Computational Rheology, a new engineering discipline in STAR-CCM+, and forwards the company’s mission to facilitate innovation through Multidisciplinary Design Exploration (MDX) to help customers discover better designs, faster. Computational Rheology further expands the multidisciplinary scope of STAR-CCM+ and targets problems where viscous and viscoelastic effects are dominant. The types of applications that are now possible to solve are flow in static mixers (bread dough food,…), flow into containers (toothpaste, shampoo,…), pumping slurries with significant heat generation, as well as extrusions (foam rubber insulation for door seals, rubber tires,...) and material processing. The capability is built on the same Finite Element (FE) framework as Computational Solid Mechanics delivered in v10.04. “Computational Rheology allows our customers to find solutions for a whole new category of applications ranging from extrusions to polymer and material processing, and they
