ACUSIM Software & Intelligent Light Offer Custom OEM Version of FieldView™ CFD Post-Processing within AcuSolve™ Solution Environment

AcuSolve users gain powerful data interrogation, presentation tools

Rutherford, NJ, and Mountain View, CA – ACUSIM Software, Inc., provider of the AcuSolve™ family of computational fluid dynamics (CFD) solutions, and Intelligent Light, developer of the FieldView™ CFD post-processing and visualization product line, today announce the release of AcuFieldView, bringing a new OEM-bundled version of FieldView to the growing CFD market.

“We are excited to be able to offer industrial-strength post-processing capabilities directly from our software through our partnership with Intelligent Light,” says Dr. Farzin Shakib, ACUSIM founder and president. “FieldView is one of the most widely used and powerful post-processors in the CFD industry. Our customers can now interrogate and visualize complex flow simulations without leaving the ACUSIM product environment, which further enhances our solution.”

The addition of AcuFieldView to ACUSIM’s product family brings complete CFD capability to ACUSIM customers from pre-processing, through solver solutions, to post-processing. ACUSIM customers now have the ability to quickly and easily review their results, understand meaningful phenomena, and develop compelling presentations for colleagues, management, and customers. The power and productivity of this integrated environment will enable analysts to perform more simulations in less time and deliver reliable, high quality results that inform and support the decision making process.

“Providing FieldView’s post-processing capabilities within the AcuSolve solution environment brings tremendous benefits for AcuSolve users,” says Steve Legensky, general manager of Intelligent Light. “FieldView’s well known ease of use, powerful interrogation capabilities, and best-in-class presentation and visualization tools will enhance their ability to ask and answer complex simulation questions, and then share those insights clearly and effectively. In addition, the data management and workflow support that FieldView offers will assist in reducing turnaround times and increasing efficiency.”

AcuFieldView provides the extensive post-processing and visualization capabilities of FieldView for use exclusively with AcuSolve solution data and with certain limitations in maximum data size and some advanced features. AcuFieldView is immediately available via AcuConsole™, the GUI environment for AcuSolve, at no additional cost. Customers should contact ACUSIM Software at Email Contact for further information and support. Should customers want to purchase the fully featured commercial version of FieldView, it is available with direct customer support from Intelligent Light and their distributors worldwide.

According to Roger Rintala, Intelligent Light strategic marketing manager, the company is teaming with its CFD partners to provide FieldView based post-processing solutions for their customer bases. “These specialized OEM versions of FieldView are intended to provide the basic visualization and automation tools that CFD practitioners need with no additional cost to the end user,” Rintala says. “Even though some functionality has been limited or removed when compared to our commercial FieldView offering, these bundled versions maintain all of the performance, reliability, and ease of use advantages that the CFD world expects from Intelligent Light products. They are completely compatible with our commercial product line, and if and when AcuSolve users need to move to fully featured FieldView, their workflow can continue uninterrupted using their existing datasets, outputs, and restarts.”
