FD-VisCART is an adaptive Cartesian mesh generation system for use with the CFD-ACE+ and CFD-FASTRAN flow solvers. CFD-VisCART is ideally suited for extremely complex geometries such as underhood for automotive applications and full aircraft configurations for aerospace applications. Significant advantages of CFD-VisCART are its robustness and ease-of-use. It handles imperfect geometries with holes, overlaps and cracks. Furthermore, it offers solution-based adaptive mesh refinement for obtaining optimal mesh resolution.
The main features are:
Automated, easy to use and learn grid generation process based on wizard methodology
Mesh based geometry import from STL (Stereo Lithography), Plot3D, NASTRAN, FAST, and other formats
Geometry creation and editing capability
Anisotropic Cartesian Grids for optimal resolution in x, y, or z direction
A specialized polyhedral boundary layer mesh of zero (stairstepped), one, or N layers to resolve viscous boundary layers is supported
Geometry and/or solution based adaptive mesh refinement
