(CFD) Solution using CFX Software on Intel Itanium Computers.AEA Technology and SGI (SGI, Sunnyvale, CA, www.sgi.com) A manufacturer of workstations and servers, founded in 1982 by Jim Clark. The company was founded as Silicon Graphics, Inc., but changed to its acronym in 1999. are cooperating to provide best-in-class solutions for fluid flow analysis, compatible with the new 64-bit Itanium processor, on the latest generation of SGI computers.

Like phonograph records, the analog disc contained grooves that a stylus rode over. (Computational Fluid Dynamics Computational fluid dynamics The numerical approximation to the solution of mathematical models of fluid flow and heat transfer. Computational fluid dynamics is one of the tools (in addition to experimental and theoretical methods) available to solve ) and SGI's new generation of computers, which are based on Intel's 64-bit Itanium processor, have been designed to address the demanding needs of researchers and engineers in many sectors. These include the automotive, aerospace, energy, chemical, rotating machinery, ventilation, and process industries. The Itanium is Intel's first product in the IA-64 family of processors. It incorporates many leading-edge features specifically designed to address the expanding needs of the workstation user, such as highest floating-point performance and large memory capabilities. Jointly with SGI, ABA Technology is porting and optimising CFX to the new Itanium processor-based SGI platform, such that users can take advantage of the new SGI technology and the CFX software, to solve complex fluid flow problems. |
