CFD Solver for Flows at All SpeedsIn order to achieve CFD simulations of reactive gas behaviors in large scale industrial facilities, such as release, dispersion and mixing, fire, deflagration and detonation, a high performance CFD code valid for flows at all speed is highly desired. Pressure-based ICE’d ALE method in GASFLOW employs the operator-splitting technology to avoid the iteration among velocity-pressure-energy. It has been shown that GASFLOW can accurately capture the unsteady characteristics of flows from low Mach number flows to supersonic flows using one solver which shows great advantages in modelling the relevant physical phenomena involved in reactive gas safety analysis.
