What we do

With FINE™/Turbo | Fidelity/Turbo, Cadence is the leading CFD supplier for the simulation of complex and highly three-dimensional flow structures in turbomachines.

For flows in and around complex geometries, such as those found in automotive and aerospace aerodynamics, engine temperature management and interior flows, Cadence’s FINE™/Open | Fidelity/Open offers a comprehensive simulation tool. Especially when combined with Cacende’s AutoMesh | Fidelity/Automesh meshing tools, you can achieve a high-quality discretisation fast and intuitively, even for very complex geometries.

The FINE™/Marine | Fidelity/Marine CFD system is specifically designed for marine applications. It handles resistance, propulsion, seakeeping and manoeuvering simulations with ease and proven accuracy. Tank sloshing, pollutant tracking, and off-shore applications are also daily business for FINE™/Marine | Fidelity/Marine.

We welcome the opportunity to advise you on all topics related to CFD and CAA simulation and optimisation. We gladly provide customised training courses and maximum support for your projects to generate your personal added value with NUMECA Ingenieurbüro.
