Hey, let's run
some CFD.
airFlow simulation puts OpenFOAM's raw fluid dynamics engine into a gorgeous, native visual workspace on macOS. Run virtual wind tunnels with zero setup compilation.
The Three Pillars of airFlow
Virtual Wind Tunnel
Set up aerodynamic test campaigns in seconds. Define inlet velocities, angle of attack sweeps, and visualize pressure coefficients across your geometry natively on macOS.
- — Parametric AoA sweeps
- — Real-time Cp distribution
- — STL / STEP geometry ingest
Native OpenFOAM Engine Orchestration
Directly manage OpenFOAM parallel solvers through a visual layer. Edit dictionary parameters, chain mesh operations, and track residuals locally without CLI headaches.
- — simpleFoam & pisoFoam
- — snappyHexMesh GUI
- — Local parallel computing
Interactive 3D Flow Slices
Visualize computational fluid dynamics outputs instantly. Cut dynamic mesh cross-sections, plot velocity vectors, and trace streamlines in a localized WebGL pipeline.
- — Arbitrary slice planes
- — Velocity vector field overlays
- — Streamline particle seeders
Frequently Answered Questions
Yes. airFlow simulation is MIT-licensed. The core orchestration layer, graphical interface, and local solver pipelines are completely open-source. We believe engineering tools should be transparent, editable, and auditable.
No. airFlow simulation manages a native local container environment on macOS, bundling solver packages with zero compilation or manual path headaches. You can run simulations right out of the box.
Our initial release supports STL, OBJ, and STEP geometries. Advanced parametric workflows via FreeCAD are planned for future updates.
All computations run locally on your workstation, fully utilizing Apple Silicon multi-core CPUs. Cloud HPC scaling for large-scale parametric clusters is optional and planned for future rollouts.
airFlow simulation is not a closed-source SaaS or an expensive vendor-locked platform. It is a local, lightweight developer workspace designed for engineering speed and physical insight, letting you keep 100% of your data and cases.
