Flows in Complex Geometries
Large scale CFD problems can be solved using the ICE parallel computing environment. This includes the simulation of rotating geometries such as mixers, gear boxes, as well as rotor stator interactions in turbo machinery applications.
Flows through Porous Media
The Lattice Boltzmann method (LBM) is particularly well suited for the simulation of porous media flow problems. Multiphase capillary flows even for large density ratio's of the faces can be simulated via ICE proprietary software ...more
Fluid-structure Interaction
Based on the open source software OpenFoam unique solutions have been developed for the simulation of fluid-structure interaction problems. There is no need to use different software for the fluid and structure part and eventually different computational approaches. One single computational mesh and one solver can be used for the solution of the complete problem ...more
Multiphase Flows
The proven expertise of ICE includes the computation of free surface flows, based on the Volume of Fluid method (VoF), nanoscale and large non-spherical particle simulations via the method of moments (MoM) and Lagrangian algorithms respectively ...more
Non-Newtonian Fluids
State of the art rheological models based on upper convected Maxwell models are used to simulate time dependent highly viscous flows. Complete user tailored software extensions for commercial CFD software, e.g. FLUENT, are available ...more
Reactive Flows
Experimental data obtained under laboratory conditions can most of the time not be directly used to simulate turbulent combustion processes and reaction kinetics in engineering applications such as engines and furnaces. ICE has developed a novel approach to optimize reaction algorithms for these applications ...more
