STAR-CAD Series Win64是CD-adapco公司专门开发的连接CAD软件和CFD软件的接口程序。它将STAR-CD/STAR-CCM+嵌入到四款通用的三维CAD设计软件（CATIA/ Unigraphics NX/Pro-ENGINEER/ SolidWorks）中，使用户可以在CAD环境中进行CFD分析，用户既享有CAD嵌入模式的强大优势，又可以使用STAR-CD/STAR-CCM+的全部高级功能。

STAR-CD是全球第一个采用完全非结构化网格生成技术和有限体积方法来研究工业领域中复杂流动的流体分析商用软件，最初是由流体力学鼻祖-英国帝国理工大学计算流体力学领域的专家教授开发的。STAR-CD为通用流体分析软件。去年占有的全球CFD市场份额为35%，就单一解算器平台而言，STAR-CD覆盖了最宽的应用领域。

STAR-CD 为一强大之计算流体力学软体，除了计算核心外并包含完整前後处理器，能帮助工程师在产品设计及开发过程中快速得到流场相关资讯。在设计初期，可以透过 STAR-CD 参数化的特性得到最佳化设计，可以节省大量时间及成本。而 STAR-CD v4.0 新版本的发行更加强了和CAD之间的整合，可以让工程师完全在Pro/E 、 SolidWorks 、 UG 、 Catia 等 CAD 软体操作介面下使用 STAR-CD 。不会有学习两套软体的感觉。 Es-tools 专家系统模组为特定用途之客户开发，包括引擎流场分析、汽车外流场分析、燃料电池分析 … 等，都能让工程师更能发挥软体效能。目前国内已超过六十间工业界、研究单位、学术单位应用於各种不同领域的问题分析，也在国内外许多期刊及研讨会发表论文。

STAR-CAD Series Win64: CAD-embedded Design-centric CFD

The STAR-CAD Series enables engineers to manage flow and thermal problems from the comfort of their chosen CAD environment. This approach delivers a number of compelling benefits over the traditional simulation process:

• designers and analysts are not required to learn a specialist simulation package
• the simulation is directly associated with the geometry, enabling parametric “what-if” design evaluations
• associativity with parametric CAD models allows easy modification of parts without the need to redefine units, materials or boundary conditions, saving time and improving productivity.

No other approach will get from CAD model to an accurate CFD solution more quickly or more reliably.

Empower your design teams
The STAR-CAD Series has been specifically developed for designers and analysts. Problem set-up and input/output requirements have been automated and integrated into the CAD environment, so that users can concentrate on evaluating engineering results and optimizing designs and take full advantage of CD-adapco’s advanced simulation technology.

Hassle free set-up
Using the CAD specification tree or the simulation wizard menu, new users can swiftly set-up and run industrial-strength CFD calculations, using the STAR-CAD Series full range of physical modeling capabilities, including: laminar and turbulent flow; thermal loads; conjugate heat transfer; rotating machinery; compressible and incompressible flow; and porous materials.
