A general structured grid generation software of national numerical windtunnel
With the advantages of accurate boundary-layer simulation and high computational efficiency
structured grid is widely used in the Computational Fluid Dynamics (CFD) research and engineering applications. However
the grid generation of complex model is very time-consuming
which usually requires frequent interactive operations in the graphic software. To solve this problem
we propose acceleration techniques in grid generation
such as boundary-layer generation
rapid block assembly
rapid adjustment of grid distribution and grid optimization of dirty model. Relying on National Numerical Windtunnel (NNW) project
we develop NNW-GridStar
a general structured grid generation software. This software supports the automatic generation of boundary-layer gird and has great advantages in the generation acceleration of volume grid
greatly improving the generation efficiency. Compared with Pointwise
NNW-GridStar generates grid faster and the quality of the generated grid is equivalent. A large number of complex cases show that NNW-GridStar meets the requirements of engineering applications. Since the release
this software has been downloaded and used by more than 80 scientific research institutes
greatly supporting the practical engineering tasks.
