Cradle CFD 2025.1

Cradle CFD 2025.1 as a Multiphysics Computational Fluid Dynamics solution to enhance your productivity for designing, researching, and manufacturing. Version 2025.1 includes Battery thermal management and safety, AI and ML tools to speed up analysis, productivity enhancements, and solver enhancements.

2025.1 features our most recent iteration in Battery safety modelling, with kinetics-driven thermal runaway added to scFLOW. Steady-state 3D-ROM files can now be visualized in scPOST and parametric studies with scFLOW have never been easier to set, submit and monitor. When using the voxel fitting mesher, facet accuracy can now be set by parts for better surface capturing. Combustion in industrial furnaces can now run very quickly by leveraging the connection between scFLOW and the LOGEacs Combustion Progress Variable (CPV) module. The simulation time when using discontinuous meshes (rotating domains) or the DEM solver is shorter, while the new AMG solver enhances robustness when dealing with coupled problems. Solid parts in porous media can now be modelled at the solver level without the need to represent complex internal geometries. Inputting large data tables in scSTREAM is now quick and easy, and blower fan components can use an outlet velocity profile. scPOST can better handle large datasets, for which waiting times and memory usage are now dramatically reduced.
