Flow Science Earns Family Friendly Business Award® at the Platinum Level
Flow Science has earned Platinum level distinction for its workplace policies by Family Friendly New Mexico, a statewide initiative developed to recognize employers that have adopted policies that give New Mexico businesses an advantage in recruiting and retaining the best employees.
Siphon Spillways
Northwest Hydraulics Consultants has applied CFD modeling in numerous case studies of existing or new spillway designs. The following article demonstrates a sample case study conducted on an existing siphon spillway.
The Solid Proof: The Latest in Solidification Modeling
One of the most exciting new developments offered with the release of FLOW-3D CAST v5.1 is the new chemistry-based aluminum-silicon and aluminum-copper alloy solidification model. This new model allows users to predict the microstructure and mechanical properties for as-cast and heat-treated castings.
Simulation of Joule Heating-based Core Drying
The new, patented Advanced Core Solution (ACS) process aims for time- and energy-efficient core drying and curing. The ACS process uses a property common to all inorganic binder systems: because they are water-based, they are electrically conductive.
Flow Science Receives the 2020 Flying 40
Flow Science has been named one of New Mexico Technology’s Flying 40 recipients for the last five consecutive years. The Flying 40 awards recognize the 40 fastest growing technology companies in New Mexico.
Announcing the Launch of FLOW-3D HYDRO
FLOW-3D HYDRO features a streamlined, water-focused user interface and offers new simulation templates for efficient modeling workflows.
Achieving Optimal Continuous Castings
Using the continuous casting process, casters can manufacture ingots, high-pressure tubes, and irregularly-shaped bars of high quality and strength, but the process must be controlled through a delicate balance of pour temperature, mold cooling, and draw rate.
Sand Core Making – Is It Time to Vent?
Sand cores are a crucial element in the casting process because they are used to create complex interior cavities. In this blog I will walk you through the process of how sand cores are made and describe the modeling tools in FLOW-3D CAST v5.1 that help engineers design their manufacturing processes.
Exploring the Centrifugal Casting Workspace
In this blog, we will explore the three centrifugal casting processes – horizontal, vertical, and centrifuge – available in FLOW-3D CAST v5.1’s Centrifugal Casting Workspace and its unique features that allow casting engineers to create high quality castings.
Simulating the Investment Casting Process
FLOW-3D CAST v5.1’s Investment Casting Workspace provides the necessary tools to study the wide range of process parameters in a virtual space and determine an optimal design before casting a single part. In this blog, we’ll walk through the Investment Casting Workspace and show how easy it is to simulate a directionally-cooled investment casting using a Bridgman process.
FLOW-3D CAST v5.1 Released
Flow Science has announced a major release of their metal casting simulation software, FLOW-3D CAST v5.1, a modeling platform that combines extraordinary accuracy with versatility, ease of use, and high performance cloud computing.
Activated Sludge Modeling: Part II
In this blog, I will show FLOW-3D’s ASM solver results for the decay and growth of various influent species concentrations as they exit a wastewater treatment plant (WWTP) in Zele, Belgium.
Flow Science Earns Recognition as New Mexico Family-Friendly Workplace
For the fourth year in a row, Flow Science, Inc. has earned gold distinction for its workplace policies by Family Friendly New Mexico.
Activated Sludge Modeling: Part I
A detailed understanding of the biochemical reactions and hydrodynamics inside wastewater treatment plants (WWTPs) can assist designers and engineers in evaluating new plant designs, quantifying management decisions, developing new control schemes and providing safe operator training. In this blog, I will introduce our readers to FLOW-3D’s new Activated Sludge Model (ASM) which dynamically solves massive systems of biochemical reactions.
FLOW-3D World Users Conference 2020 Conference Announced
In conjunction with its 40th anniversary, Flow Science, Inc. will hold the FLOW-3D World Users Conference 2020 on June 8-10, 2020 at the Maritim Hotel in Munich, Germany.
