CFD package simplifies mixing simulation
MixSim 2.0 is the latest computational fluid dynamics simulation package for use in modelling industrial mixing tank applications.
MixSim 2.0 is the latest computational fluid dynamics simulation package for use in modelling industrial mixing tank applications MixSim has a mixing-specific interface and is fully coupled with Fluent's other packages (Gambit 2 for geometry and grid generation, and the Fluent 6 solver for solver and physical models)

Automotive CFD in the conference spotlight
Fluent has revealed the programme for its upcoming automotive CFD conference to be held in Bingen, Germany on 25th and 26th June 2003.
The new intelligent geometry and meshing algorithms in MixSim 2.0, combined with mixing specific graphical presentation of results, enables users to set up CFD simulations of complex mixing tank configurations in a matter of minutes.
Uniquely in MixSim 2.0, the code allows for multiple arbitrarily positioned shafts and baffles with various top and bottom vessel shapes.
MixSim's coupling to libraries of brand name and generic impeller types also leads to rapid mixing tank problem set up and solution for parametric mixing related analyses.
Connection to the unparalleled breadth of physical and chemical models in the Fluent 6 CFD solver means that users now have the most powerful flow modelling software available to them for mixing tank calculations.
Dr Jochen Schutze, MixSim Product Manager, announcing the release of this second-generation product comments: "We believe that MixSim 2.0 is a significant milestone in CFD modelling technology for the mixing community.
MixSim's level of customisation and flexibility and its ability to model complex mixing tank configurations, will make CFD more broadly accessible to mixing practitioners".
Mixing expert and consultant, and long time CFD user Ron Weetman, adds to these observations: "I have been a user of earlier versions of MixSim for several years now and I believe MixSim 2.0 brings additional and much needed modelling power and flexibility to the mixing community".
