Java Macro introductions, Simcenter STAR-CCM+, online

Training overview

This training covered the use of Java macros in Simcenter STAR-CCM+ to automate repetitive tasks and build flexible workflows. The sessions emphasized structuring code, handling simulation objects, and integrating automation into simulation operations.

Duration: 1 half day (4h)

Training content

• • Macro Fundamentals – package structure, imports, class definition, and the mandatory execute() method.
  • Mesh Automation – creating and modifying mesh operations, customizing meshing models, and encapsulating logic into reusable methods.
  • Code Structuring – organizing macros into methods, handling default and reference values, and reading/writing external files.
  • Integration with Simulation Operations – linking Java macros to simulation pipelines for combined automated execution.

Prerequisites

Basic knowledge in CFD and Simcenter STAR-CCM+, potentially gained from attending to Volupe’s introductory course in Simcenter STAR-CCM+. Before the training Netbeans and libraries for java needs to be installed (provided as a homework).
