Star-CCM+¶

STAR-CCM+ is a multiphysics computational fluid dynamics (CFD) software that enables CFD engineers to model the complexity and explore the possibilities of products operating under real-world conditions.
Simcenter STAR-CCM+ allows the modeling and analysis of a range of engineering problems involving fluid flow, heat transfer, stress, particulate flow, electromagnetics and related phenomena.
This guide cover how to load and run starccmplus/17.02.007

In order to access Phoenix OnDemand you must be connected to the GT VPN. If you do not already have the VPN set up, visit Configure the GT VPN
Once connected to the VPN you can access the application at Phoenix OnDemand.
Choose the Slurm Interactive Apps tab and select Interactive Desktop to setup and launch.
Setting up Interactive Desktop:
