Product catalog summary
Introduction to STAR-CCM+
STAR-CCM+ is a comprehensive Computational Fluid Dynamics (CFD) software that integrates the entire CFD process into a single environment. It simplifies CAD preparation, meshing, model setup, and iterative design studies, allowing engineers to achieve accurate results more efficiently. Key innovations include built-in surface-wrapping, advanced automated meshing, and component transfer between models.
Simulation Process
The software applies model settings directly to geometry, enabling easy analysis of design changes by importing revised geometry. Automatic CAD model cleanup, meshing, and boundary condition specification reduce calculation times by mapping solutions from previous models onto new ones.
User Productivity and Capabilities
STAR-CCM+ prioritizes user productivity by combining powerful CFD capabilities with an easy-to-use interface. It supports complex simulations, including fluid-structure interaction, combustion, and boundary-layer transition, without compromising on ease-of-use or accuracy.
Scalable Performance
Developed on a client-server architecture, STAR-CCM+ handles very large models with scalable parallel performance, optimizing hardware use for creating, setting, solving, and post-processing models with billions of cells.
Parametric Geometry Modeling
STAR-CCM+ includes STAR-Design, a parametric geometry modeling tool for CAD import, edition, and creation. It is fully compatible with STAR-CCM+ and ideal for CFD engineers needing to manipulate CAD geometry without full 3D-CAD/PLM access.
Competitive Advantages
  • Single Integrated Process: Seamless transition from CAD model to result analysis.
  • Surface Wrapper: Reduces CAD cleaning and surface mesh preparation time.
  • Advanced Automatic Volume Meshing: High-quality meshing for complex assemblies.
  • Power with Ease: Advanced CFD physics models in a user-friendly interface.
  • Very Large Model Handling: Capable of managing models with one billion cells.
  • CAD/PLM-embedding: Compatible with major CAD/PLM systems like CATIA V5, Pro/ENGINEER, Unigraphics NX, and SolidWorks.
Global Presence
CD-adapco, the provider of STAR-CCM+, has a global presence with offices in the Americas, Europe, Asia-Pacific, Japan, Korea, China, and India, offering comprehensive engineering simulation solutions.

STAR-CCM+-1

An entirely new concept in CAE From geometry to analyzing results > STAR-CCM+ delivers the entire Computational Fluid Dynamics (CFD)process in a single integrated software environment. This unique approach brings unrivalled ease-of-use and automation to CADpreparation, meshing, model set-up and iterative design studies,enabling your engineers to deliver accurate results, faster. Innovations such as built-in surface-wrapping, advanced automatedmeshing (creating either polyhedral or predominantly hexahedralvolume meshes) and the ability to copy and pasteӔ components between models have quickly established STAR-CCM+ a reputation forproducing high-quality results in a single software environment withminimum user effort.From its first release in 2004, STAR-CCM+ has impressed the CFDcommunity with its rapid pace of development. Written using object-oriented programming and the latest client-server software technologycombined with outstanding ease-of-use and accuracy, STAR-CCM+ isan entirely new concept in CAE.
