FLOW-3D Announcements

FLOW-3D/MP Version 3.0 has been certified by Intel as Cluster Ready

High performance clusters offer significant performance gains over typical desktop computers but can be quite complex to configure. There are many choices for operating systems, middleware, interconnects, memory, and storage. Intel Corporation has introduced the Intel Cluster Ready certification program to assure users that hardware and software will work correctly together. Hardware that displays the Intel Cluster Ready logo is assured to run software which is also certified as Cluster Ready.

Patch Releases Available for FLOW-3D and FLOW-3D/MP

FLOW-3D/MP 3.2 is now available for download by users with active maintenance contracts. This version includes, in addition to several important corrections to problems in the solver, the Automatic Decomposition Tool (see the Development Note in the FLOW-3D News, Winter 2009).

A patch release for FLOW-3D, v9.3.2, is also available for download by users with active maintenance contracts.

CEI to be a Silver Sponsor at WUC 2009

CEI will be a silver sponsor at the 2009 FLOW-3D World Users Conference.

CEI offers a suite of tools for engineering and scientific simulation, including plotting, animation and data visualization. CEI's Ensight software is capable of reading and visualizing FLOW-3D results.

Flow Science & Alden Research Offer Collaborative Workshop at Waterpower XVI

Simulating a transient, 3-D free-surface hydraulics flow problem

David Souders, Flow Science and Dan Gessler, Alden Research Laboratory will be conducting a hands-on workshop with FLOW-3D on July 27, 2009 in conjunction with Waterpower XVI. The full-day course is designed to have students do their first simulation during the morning session. In the afternoon session, students can build their own models or make modifications to existing models to learn the capabilities of the software. Attendance during the afternoon is optional. For more details, please contact David Souders.

Training Schedule

The next scheduled dates for FLOW-3D training are:

June 2-4, 2009 (Hydraulics)
July 7-9, 2009 (General)
August 4-6, 2009 (Casting)

Classes fill up quickly, so be sure to sign up early. Register online.

Advanced Training at WUC 2009

We will also be offering advanced training for hydraulics users and a free v9.4 training class the day before the World Users Conference. Go to the WUC 2009 page to find out more details.
