COMET to orbit STAR-CD

June 12, 2001

Computational Dynamics (London) has joined ICCM (Hamburg) in a collaboration to develop and sell the latter's CFD code COMET, which has multiphysics capabilities, including an embedded structures solver for fluid/structure interaction simulation. The agreement also involves joint development work on STAR-CD with

the possible long-term goal of merging the two codes, which have complementary capabilities and common 'genes'. Existing ICCM contracts will be honoured to ensure continuity of support to COMET users and agents. However with immediate effect CD-adapco will sell and support COMET worldwide as an addition to their STAR-CD suite of CFD tools.
