Turbocharging Simulations: Next-Generation CFD/CSM for Faster, Smarter Flow Predictions

In this HUB presentation delivered at the Exposition Hall of AIAA SciTech Forum 2026, Dr. Paul Batten, Principal Scientist at Metacomp Technologies, discusses statistical convergence, an often overlooked source of error in both steady-state RANS and scale-resolving simulations, and presents new capabilities in CFD++ that address these challenges. ▶

Metacomp’s Adjoint solver in action — Aerodynamic shape optimization

Metacomp’s Adjoint solver is used to optimize the shape of the 3D wing of the common research model (CRM). A decrement of about 5% in drag is realized while maintaining the lift coefficient at 0.5 for fight conditions of  Mach 0.85 and Re/m of 5 million. A platform integrating Metacomp’s software suite (MIME® and CFD++®), OpenMDAO and

Metacomp at the NASA Thermal & Fluids Analysis Workshop (TFAWS) 2024

In 2024, Metacomp presented at the Thermal & Fluids Analysis Workshop at NASA Glenn Research Center on hypersonic aerothermodynamics modeling of two reentry flight experiments using CFD++: RAM-C II vehicle and OREX capsule.  The Radio Attenuation Measurement (RAM) program was conducted in the 1960s to study communications blackout in hypersonic reentry flows. Figure 1 shows
