Simcenter STAR-CCM+

Improve your product’s performance in virtually any real-world condition with our advanced multiphysics computational fluid dynamics (CFD) software. Our innovative technology is designed to optimize your product’s capabilities, helping you achieve better results, faster than ever before.

What is Simcenter STAR-CCM+?

Simcenter STAR-CCM+ is a commercial Computational Fluid Dynamics (CFD) based simulation software developed by Siemens Digital Industries Software. On this page you will find out more about the software Simcenter STAR-CCM+, and most importantly you can hook up with our Simcenter STAR-CCM+ specialists and learn more how we at Volupe are working to achieve true customers success.

The simulation

Simcenter STAR-CCM+ is a complete multiphysics simulation solution for the simulation of products and designs operating under real world conditions. Uniquely, Simcenter STAR CCM+ brings automated design exploration and optimization to the simulation toolkit of every engineer, allowing efficiently explore the entire design space instead of focusing on single point design scenarios.

The additional insight gained by using Simcenter STAR-CCM+ to guide your design process ultimately leads to more innovative products that exceed customer expectations.

Simcenter STAR-CCM+ accurately predict real world performance of your product when you need a simulation tool that capture all of the physics that will influence its performance during its operational life, including those that cross the boundaries of traditional engineering disciplines. Simcenter STAR-CCM+ enable to improve your product when you need to predict how performance changes in response to multiple parametric design changes.

Fluid dynamics simulation

Simcenter provides industry leading computational fluid dynamics software allows you to simulate almost any engineering problem that involves the flow of liquids, gases (or a combination of both), together with all of the associated physics.

Battery Simulation

Digitally validate Li-ion cell design including geometrical cell specifications and cell performance. Extensive components of a battery cell are available, as well as a material database to support the user in its model development. See how our team made a battery simulation using STAR-CCM+

STAR-CCM+ Co-simulation

Couple to other simulation tools through dedicated interfaces, or an intuitive API. This enables the multi-physics simulations with different time scales ranging from microseconds to thousands of seconds, providing faster and more accurate analyses and shorter turnover times for development and assessment of complex designs

Design Exploration

Rather than just simulating a single operating point, explore how your product performs over the full range of operating conditions that it will face during its working life, and employ intelligent design exploration to discover better designs faster.

Electric Machines

Comprehensive analytical models include all aspects of the design of electric machines, including thermal, electromagnetic and drive control. Of particular importance is the efficient utilization, and even elimination, of magnets. Our simulation tools are structured to give seamless design capability over the entire range of permanent-magnet machines and the alternatives including hybrid combinations and covers the entire range of power, voltage, and speed used in vehicle systems.

Electrochemistry Simulation

Simulate complex electrochemically-driven processes involving ion and electron exchange between fluid and solid phases. Simcenter STAR-CCM+ offers a general-purpose electrochemistry approach that allows you to simulate flow, energy, and electrochemistry together and open the door to real-world chemistry applications in 3D

Design Exploration

Engine simulations in STAR-CCM+ involving moving components, multiphase flow, combustion and heat transfer. You no longer have to be an expert user to simulate internal combustion engines: using an application-specific workflow and simplified interface allows you to set up engine simulations quickly and easily. Expert users can use those simulations as the starting point for performing more complicated multiphysics engine simulations that exploit the full range of Simcenter STAR-CCM+ simulation capabilities.

Moving Objects

STAR-CCM+ helps you with problems that involve multiple moving and interacting components can be easily simulated using overset meshing, mesh morphing, or a combination of both. The moving mesh capabilities can also be used for parametric studies and for steady or unsteady simulations, providing an easy way to reposition or replace objects to study multiple design configurations.

Rheology

Computational rheology is used to model non-Newtonian or viscoelastic materials in industrial problems. The rheology solver accurately resolves the dominant physics of complex rheological material flow and helps predict their behavior.
