Hypersonic Simulation Recommendation - CFD++ or OpenFOAM, or else?

dacets · May 9, 2018, 10:29

Hello everyone,

I am going to work with hypersonic flow - on a nozzle design. I think I have the options to work with CFD++ and OpenFOAM, but still could not find a proper reason to pick one or another in terms of capability. I'd be glad if you could help with this, and maybe help with some starting references.

Regards.

Commercial application works smooth and your choice depends on the amount of money you wuold like to invest! For compressible flows and remaining into open-source world, SU2 from standford seems to be the best on the market.
