Important Notice
The hardware market is currently moving fast, and we want our prices to be right. That’s why we’ve paused online pricing. Don’t worry we’re still committed to giving you the best value with a custom quote tailored just for you.
What we do:
What you need:
(CFD hardware breakdown)
The more clusters you have the more CFD simulations you can run in a day and the faster they will complete
Provides a Linux work area for CAD software as well as for pre and post-processing and job scheduling. Suitable for individuals or teams. Graphic card included.
Access like a shared drive, this is used to store all the simulation data.

Workstations
Fully customisable to your needs.
There are many applications for a workstation, ranging from a single user Linux to an eight person hypervised Linux workstation.
A workstation can also be used for:
- hosting your job scheduler,
- a GPU powered pre and post-processing workstation for your simulations,
- a Linux work area for CAD,
- hosting storage,
- providing a high-powered remote desktop environment.

Storage
Storage servers are full customisable to your needs
For a small team a good starting point would be:
HDD based
- 16 Core
- 128GB Memory
- 4x 12TB SAS HDDs in a Hardware RAID10 (giving 20TB of usable space)
SSD based

High-performance computing built for CFD
Since 2003, we’ve been crafting HPC solutions specifically for computational fluid dynamics. This isn’t just hardware – it’s purpose-built infrastructure developed by CFD engineers and IT specialists for CFD engineers.
Why choose bramble hardware?
Performance-optimised architecture
Our clusters aren’t just powerful – they’re intelligently designed. We’ve fine-tuned every component to deliver optimal CFD performance, ensuring your simulations run at peak efficiency without unnecessary overhead.
Cost-effective power
We understand the balance between computational muscle and budget constraints. Our solutions deliver impressive solve times while maintaining cost-effectiveness, giving you the best return on your investment.
Open source foundation
We build on robust, transparent foundations:
- Linux-based operating systems
- Advanced job scheduling systems
- Comprehensive management software
- No proprietary lock-in
The bramble advantage
Unlike general-purpose HPC providers, we live and breathe CFD. Our systems are benchmarked against real-world CFD applications, ensuring you get hardware that delivers where it matters most – your simulation runtime.
