CEI India will be hosting its second annual user conference in Pune from February 23 through 25. EnSight and CONVERGE users from across the globe will be in attendance.
February 23 will be devoted to CONVERGE CFD software. The Automotive Research Association of India, the Indian Institute of Technology Madras, General Electric (GE), Defence Research and Development Organisation, Renault Nissan, and the Indian Institute of Technology Bombay will showcase their work with CONVERGE. In addition, Sarangarajan Vijayraghavan, Senior Research Engineer at Convergent Science, will discuss two topics: the powerful improvements and innovative new features in the recently-released CONVERGE v2.3 as well as using CONVERGE to model flows in complex geometries. Presentations will highlight the many strengths of CONVERGE, which include automatic, Cartesian cut-cell meshing; Adaptive Mesh Refinement (AMR); the ease of modeling moving boundaries; and fluid-structure interaction (FSI) modeling.
The features that make CONVERGE v2.3 a robust engine simulator also provide tremendous benefits for other applications. In his second talk, Sarang will share captivating and illuminating transient results from CONVERGE. He will explain why automatic, Cartesian cut-cell meshing and AMR are ideal tools for capturing complex flows through small clearances and for modeling complex geometries and moving parts in a wide variety of applications. Finally, Sarang will discuss the use of FSI modeling to capture flow concepts that previously have been studied with only steady-state analysis in other CFD codes.
