The Humble Delta Cp Plot

The Humble Delta Cp Plot

When a simulation completes, we want to quickly determine what the effect of our test was. How have the forces and flow metrics changed, and perhaps more importantly, where and why have they changed? bramble produces a detailed set of forces, flow metrics and...
How We Adopted Open Source CFD

How We Adopted Open Source CFD

Back in the early-2000s some of our longer serving (older!) staff, myself included, were working at British American Racing.  For those who may not know, this was a Formula 1 team that would eventually transition into Mercedes F1. We were getting into optimisation as...
Intelligent Mesh Settings

Intelligent Mesh Settings

Different workflows can require different mesh settings. Having to manually update these can be a pain, especially if you forget and need to re-run your simulation! Workflow specific mesh settings allow bramble to intelligently activate refinements so you don’t have...
Consistency is the Key

Consistency is the Key

Changes in mesh recipe and solver settings will invariable result in different CFD solutions.  Consequently, it is important to ensure consistency over the lifetime of a project. Especially if it is a long running project or has a number of involved engineers....
