Customer Testimonials

"The polyhedral meshing function in FLUENT 6.3 has been especially useful in accelerating simulations. For one case, the mesh size went down from about 800,000 cells to 150,000 and the solution speed went up accordingly. For scoping out a preliminary solution, this coarse mesh is ideal. Overall I'm very happy with the new version. It also works great on multiprocessor platforms."       - Keith Gawlik, National Renewable Energy Laboratory
