3DNS

Fast High Fidelity Simulations for Industrial Applications and Research

3DNS is a high order compressible Navier-Stokes solver capable of running on massively parallel CPU and GPU systems. The code is capable of simulating a wide range of test-cases and has been demonstrated on compressor and turbine geometries including mixed-flow machines. The solver has a number of features including multi-block characteristic interfaces, real-gas (non-ideal) thermodynamic models and automatic inflow turbulence.
