Using HyperWorks for CFD Analysis AcuSolve

Comparison of base discretization technologies:
Finite Element (FE)
Finite Volume (FV)
Conservative
In general more accurate than FV
Strong for high flow speeds (viscous effects

are not dominant), because conservation is
important
Strong for viscous dominated flows (e.g. low

speed flows), because diffusion operator is
math. Optimum in FEM
Faster than FEM
More mathematical theory available
In general less accurate
In general not conservative
AcuSolves differentiation:
Conservation of all relevant quantities in all cases
Including conditions of nonlinear enthalpy, variable time step, radiation, ALE, free surface,
FSI, sliding interfaces etc.
Typically faster and more robust than FV Codes
Due to a novel proprietary iterative linear solver technology which allows fast and
robust solution of the coupled system
Using HyperWorks for CFD Analysis AcuSolve
Advantages over FV-based codes:

Robustness
Most cases solved on first attempt
Convergence under nearly all conditions
Speed
Efficient parallel scalability
Superior steady state convergence
Superior transient time stepping
Accuracy
2nd order for all problems & elements
Features
Unmatched stability/accuracy
Almost no Element quality requirements
Single solver for all flow regimes
Best in class capabilities for FSI,

Thermal Analysis & Optimization
AcuSolve Element Quality

AcuSolve is very forgiving of poor element quality
Requires significantly less manual meshing work to obtain suitable
quality when compared to FV schemes
Reduced to 25%
