Invitation

Nowadays Computational Fluid Dynamics methods are a well-established and accepted development tool used in a wide range of industries. Since CFD achieved this level of acceptance, the expectations towards CFD regarding turn-around time, ease-of-use, process robustness, automation and standardization have changed rapidly. In response, recently there has been a strong focus on CFD Workflow Management.

The European NAFEMS CFD Conference will offer a unique forum where experts from different industries, academia, software vendors will will share their knowledge regarding CFD Workflow Management concepts and solutions covering the following topics:

Reduce the turn-around time and ease-of-use of CFD process via:

  • CFD workflow process automation: Preprocessing – Simulation – Postprocessing - CFD process standardization 

Improve the robustness of CFD analysis via:

  • Integration with Product Data Management (PDM) systems 
  • Integration with Simulation Data Management (SDM) systems 
  • Advanced material data management concepts 

Improved usability of CFD processes via:

  • Integration in optimization workflows 
  • Integration in multi-disciplinary simulation processes 

Verification and correlation in the design process

If you are interested in talking to the CFD community about the CFD workflow management and the management of new challenging CFD applications in your organization and sharing your thoughts about future trends you are invited to attend the 1st European NAFEMS CFD conference.

The ‘CFD – Beyond the Solve‘ event is being run in parallel with the ‘NAFEMS Simulation Process and Data Management’ European Conference. Delegates will be free to attend sessions of their choice in both events in order to exploit the synergies between these two technical areas. We are looking forward to meeting you in Munich.
