Version 3.1 - what's new
Version 3.1 adds to CONVERGE's physical modeling options. The software now supports implicit fluid-structure interaction (FSI) modeling, which increases the stability of the solver when simulating fluids and solids with similar densities or when simulating floating solid bodies. This option, along with the new wind/wave generation tools and the mooring model, allows users to simulate a broader range of offshore and marine applications. In addition, CONVERGE 3.1 features several new volume of fluid (VOF) modeling approaches for reducing numerical diffusion at fluid interfaces and separating phases or immiscible liquids under the influence of gravity.
Multi-stream simulations are another new feature of CONVERGE 3.1. With this capability, users can apply different physical models and solver settings to different regions of the domain, making complex multi-physics simulations possible with a simplified workflow.
CONVERGE can now be coupled with ParaView Catalyst to perform in situ post-processing of simulation results directly on the cluster. This reduces the storage space and time requirements for writing data to a disk, and eliminates all user time associated with post-processing the results at the end of the simulation.
CONVERGE 3.1 offers several additional enhancements, including moving inlaid meshes, the ability to have a wall move through an arbitrary number of cells in a time-step, and the capability to simulate solid particles.

CONVERGEis a cutting-edge CFD software package that eliminates all user meshing time through fully autonomous meshing. CONVERGE automatically generates a perfectly orthogonal, structured grid at runtime based on simple, user-defined grid control parameters. Thanks to its fully coupled automated meshing and its Adaptive Mesh Refinement (AMR) technology, CONVERGE can easily analyze complex geometries, including those with moving boundaries. Moreover, CONVERGE contains an efficient detailed chemistry solver, an extensive set of physical submodels, a genetic algorithm optimization module, and fully automated parallelization. CONVERGE CFD software is used by companies, academic institutions, and national laboratories around the globe. More than 80% of engine manufacturers worldwide use CONVERGE. That figure includes major OEMs in the United States, Europe, China, Japan, and South Korea.
