American Magic
New York Yacht Club American Magic “Patriot”: Aerodynamics Flow Visualization. American Magic uses Tecplot 360 to visualize the CFD solutions they produce within AcuSolve from Altair. Tecplot 360 is ideal for this task […]
Flow Dynamics of Liquid Jet Irrigation
To better understand the flow dynamics of liquid jet irrigation, Kiao Inthavong and his team at the CFD Research Group used Tecplot 360. They reconstructed a computational model of a human nasal cavity using CT scans of actual human patients from ENT clinicians. […]
Thermal Visualization of a Self-Sustaining Green House
Researching innovative industrial processes through multiphysical modeling and simulation is the work of graduate students in Professor Tarek Zohdi’s Multiphysics Simulation and Optimization Lab (MSOL), part of the Department of Mechanical Engineering at UC Berkeley. The lab has been using Tecplot 360 for 10+ years to visualize their multi-physics simulations. […]
Thermal Field Visualization for Uncertainty Quantification
Additive manufacturing (AM) has been permeating the industrial fabrication space for decades. Technologies that encompass AM are vast […]
NASA SLS Flight Condition Analyses Time Reduced from Days to Hours
Flight condition analyses reduced the postprocessing time by a factor of 12 relative to the baseline reduction methods. […]
Tail Strake Position Optimization for Generic Transport Aircraft
Engineers at the German Aerospace Center (DLR) found that the visualization component was crucial in understanding flow effects of the transport aircraft they were designing. […]
Modeling 3D Geothermal System
Modeling a unique Geothermal System With Complex 3D Flow presented several challenges. The first was determining flow rate and temperature of the geothermal reservoir and the regional flow system. […]
Predictive Ocean Model Helps Coastal Estuarine Research
The Salish Sea Model is a predictive ocean modeling tool for coastal estuarine research, restoration planning, water-quality management, and climate change response assessment. […]
Detecting Problems with Your Water Quality Model Predictions
Chris Berger of Portland State University has been using Tecplot for over 25 years, primarily for generating contour plots, animations and x-y graphs that show water quality model predictions. […]
Improving Stock Car Performance with CFD Analysis
A new case study by Brazilian Tecplot distributor ATS describes their “meticulous analysis” of the aerodynamics of the entire car, including the tradeoffs between top speed, downforce for cornering performance and braking – key components to lower lap times. […]
