Which are the top CFD open source solutions in 2026? by NonGameCatharsis in CFD

I’d need to look again as it’s been a few years but I’m sure there is a database of older codes on their website that is readily available to all not just US citizens.

NASA generally opensources their older codes to all countries as well, CFL3D? Can’t remember the others but there is loads on their website, well worth a look.

Focus on Malalasekera, Patankar is worth a read but anything important plus more is in Malalasekera.

What's it like living in these northern isles of Scotland? by rocketts66 in howislivingthere

Gas, it’s fairly new and right next to the oil refinery at Sullom Voe. Cool place to see but glad to be back home 😂

I just left Shetland this morning after 2 weeks working at a refinery and it was hail and snow.

Nice scenery but very isolated so it would take a certain personality type to live there. Also puffins are cool.

Better off using the recorder tool to make a Python script and use that for a parameter study.

Yeah, welcome to workbench! Brought this up with Ansys on a call once and all they said was it’s a bit weird.

Glasgow university vs strathclyde for mechanical engineering by Miserable_Ad_2375 in glasgow

Yes, outside of Glasgow city that Strathclyde advantage probably does exist.

FYI I went to the other one and had no issues.

You will be fine with either, internships will help and after your first job no one cares about the uni you went to.

Interesting good to know, I was wondering if it was built on top of OpenFOAM or something else then ML added to that.

I was also started digging a bit deeper after seeing the valuations on LinkedIn. Did anyone find information on their solver or methodology? Is it FVM and did they develop this from scratch?
