Power generation and propulsion markets have fostered innovation at NUMECA since the company was founded in 1992. Today, FINE™/Turbo and its unmatched meshing tool Autogrid5™, a fully automatic mesh generator for blade geometries, are known as pioneering products in the field of turbomachinery simulation. FINE™/Turbo is a turbomachinery-focused CFD suite with a grid generator, solver, and post-processor integrated into a single user-friendly interface. The fast, high-accuracy, multi-block structured Navier-Stokes solver at the core of FINE™/Turbo has been developed and validated for flow phenomena characteristic of turbomachinery, e.g. steady and unsteady rotor stator interactions. The solver is capable of simulating flows from low subsonic, using artificial compressibility, to hypersonic. The FINE™/Turbo solver has low computational costs in terms of RAM and...

NUMECA International is pleased to announce the release of FINE/Turbo v8.9.1 (including AutoGrid5 v8.9.1), the latest version of the high accuracy multi-block structured Navier-Stokes CFD software dedicated to internal, multi-stage rotating and turbomachinery flow simulations. This latest version fulfills the objective of NUMECA Int. to deliver innovative and high performance solutions targeted to customer needs and market demands. User friendly functionalities have been added to the meshing tools IGG/AutoGrid5 to facilitate mesh generation. Existing power features linked to the CFD solver have been upgraded, including CPU booster, NLH method, Turbulence modelling, and Fluid/structure coupling, while new tools such as definition of cooling/bleed holes have been added. Significant efforts have been also directed towards improvement of the turbomachinery post-processor CFViewT resulting...
