1. What are feature edges The feature edges are surface mesh sub-elements whose existence is often very important in the meshing process – where they are treated as constraints. These are the sharp corners/edges in the domain which, when specified as feature edges,...
Tips & Tricks For A High-Quality Meshing Process
In order for CF-MESH+ to do its work the best it can and generate high-quality meshes, there are certain requirements that need to be done, when preparing a geometry for meshing. It is possible to do so with some tips and tricks for a high-quality meshing process....
Multi-Domain Meshing With CF-MESH+
With the latest release 3.0, Creative Fields has released a new multi-domain meshing feature. The feature enables the generation of conformal interfaces between the multiple domains present in the geometry. In addition, the method consistently handles baffles. It is...
Turbulent Flow Simulation Around DrivAer Vehicle Solved By Using CF-MESH+ And OpenFOAM
London, UK, March 2019 - Creative Fields, a provider of state-of-the-art CFD meshing software, is proud to announce that the turbulent flow simulation around the DrivAer vehicle was solved successfully using CF-MESH+ in combination with OpenFOAM. CF-MESH+ is a fully...
Taking Part In Talking CFD Podcast
Creative Fields team was very honoured to be invited to Robin Knowles’ podcast “Talking CFD”. Episode 15 was published on November 29th, and it is available on the website, via iTunes, or via Soundcloud. Here’s a transcript of the entire interview: Robin Knowles:...
CFD For Beginners
It is very challenging to be a CFD beginner. Coming from a different background and not being an engineer, I personally can relate to all of our beginner-level users. You often feel as if you need a booklet, something like „CFD for dummies“. And when you luckily...
Simulating A Racing Car With cfMesh And CF-MESH+
We at Creative Fields care about future generations, seeing them as potential future co-workers so we do our best to help them educate and prepare them for all the challenges of today’s and tomorrow’s labour market. Therefore, in the spring of 2015, we donated our...
What Thermodynamics and Economy Have in Common?
In thermodynamics, there are two important laws – the first one refers to the conservation of energy and the second one refers to entropy. It is easy to describe the same processes in the economy, as well as in everyday life. Surprisingly, the thermodynamics and...
Advances In Anisotropic Mesh Generation With Arbitrary Polyhedra In cfMesh
Many problems solved with Computational Fluid Dynamics (CFD) are of an anisotropic nature, such as boundary layers and free surfaces, and they require anisotropic computational meshes to solve these problems efficiently. These features impose stringent requirements on...
An Inside-Out Method For Arbitrary Polyhedra
Meshes consisting of arbitrary polyhedra have gained popularity in the CFD community over the last decade, as a consequence of the advances in solver technology. Furthermore, polyhedral meshes can be generated by retrieving the dual of a tetrahedral mesh, and there...
