Download files:

11/07/2009 (1). Updated setup.bat file to replace the old one under c:\esdc.

Purpose: Fix the executables path problem.

(2). Updated write_1d.pyc file to replace the old one under c:\esdc\gui\lib.

Purpose: Fix the initial condition write out.

(3). 1D strong shock wave example (A4-strong-shock.zip) with pressure ratio 500 and density ratio 400.

The a4.db file can be read by the 1D mesh generator to create 1d mesh and also calculate the exact solution.

11/02/2009. Updated the flusol.exe version 3.01, from esdc.zip file and put it under c:

Purpose: Fix the bugs for 1D, patch, circle and ellipse mesh creations.

There is an example in C:\ESDC\example\F17-RM-10-MISSILE\f17 to show how to create wing-body combination by using the patch mesh method. The *.pat file can be used to create a building block file *.blk and later all the *.blk files can be combined to create a full 2d mesh.

Download the whole package (11/01/2009):

To run the FluSol CFD, please do following steps:

1. Download the flusol.exe version 3.01, from esdc.zip file and put it under c:

2. Extract the esdc.zip file and create a directory c:\esdc.

3. To run FluSol, double click the c:\esdc\setup.bat file.

4. The esdc.zip contains an esdc96.blk license file which has the limitation of 3000 nodes and will expire on 2009/12/31.

5. To test run, download the mesh file and run it.

Note: For pre and post, download the gmsh.zip and put it under c:\gmsh directory.

10/15/2009. Updated page1_view_mesh.pyc to replace the old one under c:\esdc\gui\lib directory.

Purpose: This updated file will enable user to view the Axisymmetrical model.

10/14/2009. Updated cvrt.exe file to replace the old one under c:\esdc directory

Purpose: This updated cvrt.exe will create gmsh_farfield.geo and gmsh_wall.geo files. Both files are needed by gmsh.exe to display the wall surface and farfield surface plots for 3D mesh.

10/13/2009. Updated flusol.exe and flusol2.exe files to replace the old one under c:\esdc directory

Purpose: (1) These new executables will enable user to create and view 3d wing-body combination mesh without the 3000 nodes limitation.

(2) Can create 3d wing-body combination mesh directly from *.msh file by click the “Create wing-body” button.

(3) Has the new capability to solve 3D field equation (see Heat_Equation.pdf ). Heat equation mesh files heat-equation.zip (4.87 MB).

Put the Heat_Equation.pdf file under c:\esdc\manual directory.

10/05/2009. Updated fluso.exe file (3.28 MB) to replace the old one under the c:\esdc directory.

Purpose: New capabilities to plot results from two-phase flow calculations. Both Eulerian and Lagrange approaches are included. Contour plots and particle trajectories are included.

10/02/2009. The new update enable user to make plots without the need to convert mesh and result files into GMSH file format.

Download the whole package (10/02/2009):

To run the FluSol CFD, please do following steps:

1. Download the esdc.zip file and put it under c:

2. Extract the esdc.zip file and create a directory c:\esdc.

3. To run FluSol, double click the c:\esdc\setup.bat file.

4. The esdc.zip contains an esdc96.blk license file which has the limitation of 3000 nodes and will expire on 2009/12/31.

5. To test run, download the mesh file and run it.

Note: For pre and post processing, FluSol uses the GMSH. We suggest user to download the gmsh.zip and put it under c:\gmsh directory. At the same time edit the c:\esdc\setup.bat file, by changing the following line:

set gmsh=c:\esdc\gmsh

into

set gmsh=c:\gmsh

In future, user can update his own gmsh.exe file from official GMSH website.
