Run Complex CFD Simulations Instantly

M-Star CFD develops first-principles modeling tools for scientists and engineers, generating predictions that are functionally indistinguishable from measured data

Easy To Use CFD Software

The simple graphical interface and minimal user specification in M-Star CFD software means most users will be trained to use the tool in a matter of hours.

Focus on defining your physical modeling parameters right away with no volume meshing in the M-Star workflow.

Run CFD Simulations on a Standard Desktop GPU

M-Star CFD pairs modern algorithms with modern GPU architectures providing faster simulation times critical for modeling processes that take seconds, minutes, or hours of runtime.

Complete simulations in a fraction of the time of traditional modeling approaches and without needing expensive, specialized servers or large CPU clusters.

Functionally Indistinguishable Predictions

M-Star CFD software is equipped with integrated post-processing tools that allow for real-time data analysis and photorealistic rendering, facilitating a deeper understanding of simulation results.

Generate predictions that are functionally indistinguishable from measured data and investigate previously impractical problems.

Featured CFD Applications

Engineers, scientists, and researchers of every experience level use M-Star CFD software to model a multitude of momentum, energy, and mass transport problems.

CFD-DEM Simulations

Particle-laden systems often require the simultaneous solution of the fluid field, particle fields, and interactions between the two phases. The GPU-based implementation of M-Star CFD makes large-scale simulations of such systems accessible and practical.

Bioreactors

Most biologic processes are developed in lab-scale, tabletop bioreactors with small operating volumes. M-Star helps you build, run, and post-process simulations for real-world, production-sized bioreactors that can hold up to tens-of-thousands of liters.

Scaling Up Bioreactors

Agitated Tanks

Mixing processes in multi-fluid systems present more complicated competition between fluid inertia and buoyancy. M-Star CFD software helps you model and predict real-time fluid mechanics with greater speed and fidelity than ever before.

Free Surface Dynamics

Free-surface systems are topologically complex and almost always time-varying. The transient, high-resolution simulation accessible using M-Star CFD provides detailed insights into the sloshing, vortexing, and rocking that characterize these systems.
