We have a vast experience and expertise in solving complex CFD tasks from various sectors for a targeted design or optimisation of products and processes.
Valve example: Solved with DHCAE’s OpenFOAM -
The animation shows an example of the ACMI functionality in OpenFOAM which allows sliding meshes and partial overflow in the resulting transition zones. Here the motion is combinded with piston movement.
