Access RhinoCFD, a plug-in for Rhino3D

RhinoCFD adds the power of Computational Fluid Dynamics directly to the CAD environment. It is now fully compatible with Rhino 8 (v3.1.1), while maintaining support for Rhino 5, 6, and 7 (v2.1.5). This allows users to undertake interactive CFD investigations of their models—utilising the new responsive interface and faster grid generation in the Rhino 8 version—without leaving the Rhinoceros environment.

 

RhinoCFD incorporates the robust features of the PHOENICS solver. 'PARSOL' minimises problems associated with complex geometries, while the brand-new Monitor Plot Window (in v3.1.1) provides real-time tracking of residuals, greatly reducing the complexity of obtaining converged solutions.

 

Both steady-state and transient scenarios can be considered, with expanded physics options in the latest release—including Spalart-Allmaras turbulence, Pasquill stability criteria, and VOF boiling models—enabling users to extend the range of conditions applied to their models.
