Boxer: how does it do it?

 

Direct integration within a fully parallel environment, of:

  • Level-set solid modelling kernel
  • Mesh generation
  • 3D RANS flow solver and post-processing
 

Automated and extremely robust handling of realistic CAD

  • Tolerant to extremely "dirty" geometry via the native geometry kernel
  • Automated feature-detection by increased mesh resolution
  • Automated curvature enhancement
  • Supports on-the-fly "Boolean" combinations of separate STL parts - no need to pre-assemble a complete geometry
 

Periodic meshing for turbomachinery

  • Native and intuitive polar-meshing capability for fully periodic cases
  • Exact mesh matching across periodic boundaries - no sliding-interfaces required
 

Guaranteed and automated cell quality control

  • Body-conformal meshing achieved via comprehensive cell optimisation, smoothing and control
  • All cells meet internal quality thresholds
  • No post-mesh smoothing and repair required
