Description

EasyCFD is a desktop application designed for computational fluid dynamics (CFD), integrating geometry preparation, mesh generation, simulation, and post-processing within a unified graphical interface. It caters to both two-dimensional and axisymmetric fluid flows and heat transfer, accommodating structured and unstructured meshes for steady-state or transient simulations. The software allows users to model various phenomena such as laminar and turbulent flows, conduction, conjugate heat transfer, scalar transport, multicomponent flows, and both isotropic and anisotropic porous media. For turbulence modeling, it offers several options including Standard, RNG, and Realizable k-ε, SST k-ω, Spalart–Allmaras, and Transition k–kL–ω. Users can visualize results through contours, vectors, streamlines, XY plots, and statistical analyses. Primarily focused on education and learning in the field of CFD, EasyCFD also serves as a valuable tool for research and preliminary engineering evaluations. The official website features a range of resources including detailed examples, instructional video tutorials, a comprehensive user manual, and validation materials to assist users. Additionally, a fully functional trial version is accessible for 20 days, enabling potential users to evaluate its capabilities. Overall, EasyCFD presents a robust platform for both newcomers and experienced engineers in computational fluid dynamics.

Description

LIGGGHTS is an open-source simulation software that employs the Discrete Element Method to model materials composed of particles, particularly emphasizing simulations related to industrial granules and heat transfer. The name LIGGGHTS reflects its foundation on LAMMPS, improved specifically to enhance simulations of general granular materials and their thermal dynamics, thereby broadening the reach of DEM into practical industrial scenarios. This tool is adept at simulating a variety of systems in which the behavior of materials arises from the dynamics, collisions, friction, cohesion, thermal exchange, and interactions among individual particles. It proves beneficial for studying an array of applications, including powders, grains, bulk solids, particulate flows, packed beds, conveyor systems, mixing operations, hopper discharges, and material handling, particularly in contexts where the behaviors at the particle level are significant. Currently, LIGGGHTS is embraced by numerous research institutions and commercial enterprises across the globe, valued for its open-source nature and the adaptability it offers in the simulation of particulate materials. Moreover, its versatility makes it an essential tool in advancing research and development in various fields related to granular systems.
