Stanford University Releases SU2 1.1

Posted Thu July 19, 2012 @08:36AM

The Aerospace Design Lab at Stanford University has released version 1.1 of the Stanford University Unstructured (SU2) open-source CFD code.

With this update, the SU2 team has made significant strides in improving the capabilities, reliability, and usability of our open-source CFD analysis and design tool.

The new release contains a host of new features of interest to the CFD community, including:

Windows binary executables with full functionality (parallelism, CGNS support, etc.).
Improved parallelization.
Pointwise® plugin for direct export to SU2 grid formats.
Additional flexibility in the specification of the optimization problem.
Additional spatial discretization schemes, including HLLC and AUSM.
Axisymmetric implementation for Euler and incompressible governing equations.
3D Reacting flow simulations using argon gas chemistry models.
Free surface simulation and design.
Periodic boundary conditions.
Updated python scripts.

SU2 is under active development in the Aerospace Design Lab (ADL) in the Department of Aeronautics and Astronautics at Stanford University and is released under an open-source license.
