University Program for the Americas
Recognizing the importance of supporting the academic Engineering community, we are offering your university the opportunity to take advantage of a special licensing program. We are providing your students with the chance to take advantage of STAR-CCM+ by offering various licensing options.
CD-adapco's new fluid dynamics code, STAR-CCM+, is the new standard in
the industrial CFD community, and is now available to universities at a monumental
discount. State-of-the-art modeling and software technology has resulted
in a code that is above all, renowned for its outstanding ease-of-use.
The greatest asset we built into STAR-CCM+ in our strive for ease-of-use is polyhedral meshing. CD-adapco is the first and only CAE company to master the technology of polyhedral meshing. Ultimately, this unprecedented capability in CFD will enhance the effectiveness and efficiency of your students' learning by combining both the speed of tetrahedral meshing with the accuracy of hexahedral meshing. To learn more about this breakthrough, click
here.
The speed and accuracy brought about by STAR-CCM+ and polyhedral
meshing will vastly benefit your pre-designed curriculum, lab work, and students'
independent projects. CFD simulations with STAR-CCM+ can validate your experimentation
results and aid in design optimization.
Most importantly, participating in CD-adapco's University Program
will empower your students by granting them access to a tool - polyhedral
meshing - that is available only with STAR-CCM+, and is now the industry
standard in engineering.
CD-adapco is also committed to a life long relationship with our student and alumni user base through INSET - the
INstitute for STAR Engineers & Technologists (INSET), which provides a user-life management tool so that as our entire student and alumni user base grows and matures within their engineering careers. Read more about INSET
Licensing Options
CD-adapco offers flexible licensing options of STAR-CCM+ for both professors and students. From CAD modeling to post-processing, STAR-CCM+ delivers the entire CFD process in a single integrated environment. With outstanding ease-of-use and accuracy, it is considered a necessary tool to complement various undergraduate and graduate courses such as, fluid mechanics, thermodynamics, heat transfer and of course, computational fluid dynamics. Included in this teaching package are Academic Teaching Modules which help students gain familiarity with the software through various ‘real-world’ scenarios
Research and Instructional Packages include: licenses, training, STAR-Tutor Interactive and Online sessions, support and Academic Teaching Modules.
