Altair CFD offers a comprehensive suite of simulation tools tailored for solving fluid mechanics problems across industries. With several solver options—including the Navier-Stokes (NS) solver for general applications, the Smoothed Particle Hydrodynamics (SPH) solver for free surface simulations, and the Lattice Boltzmann Method (LBM) for aerodynamics—Altair CFD helps solve complex thermal, aerodynamics, and multiphysics challenges. One of its key features is a flexible license system, providing access to multiple solvers under one license. The solvers are optimized for GPU clusters, delivering high-performance simulations. The platform also integrates seamlessly with Altair HyperWorks for efficient workflows and offers unique capabilities like aero-acoustics prediction and fluid-structure interaction simulations.
