The CFD-ACE+
product suite comes with the Simulation Manager (SimManager) software
tool, which allows you to perform parametric analysis and optimization
studies, and customize and automate your own design process. Using its
built-in GUIs and the Python script language, create custom
applications based on ESI Group CFD engineering analysis software.
|
SimManager has the following major features:
- Standard wizards for
- Parametric Analysis (Design of Experiments), and
- Optimization with support for Geometric Parameters, Boundary and Volume Conditions, and Simulation Parameters
- Single (Brent) and Multi-Parameter (Powell, Simplex) Optimization
- SimManager has the ability to launch and control one or more CFD-ACE+ engineering analysis tools through scripting
- All
tool functionality is accessible by means of the Python script language
from SimManager. Scripts can be written from scratch or can be created
by means of GUI (journaling)
- Embedded
Python interpreter, which allows for incorporation of your own programs
into an analysis process. This is useful, for example, for:
- Addition of new capabilities, such as a control system model
- Integration of proprietary numerical algorithms
- Customized GUIs, scriptable plotters, and so on
