What problem does it solve?

FluidSim provides an accessible framework for high-performance computational fluid dynamics (CFD) simulations in Python, enabling researchers and engineers to build, run, and analyze complex fluid dynamics models without needing to implement low-level solvers from scratch.

Core Features & Use Cases

  • Multiple solvers for periodic-domain CFD (2D/3D Navier-Stokes, shallow water, stratified flows)
  • High-performance execution via C/Python integration (Pythran/Transonic), MPI parallelization
  • Complete workflow: parameter configuration, simulation execution, and output analysis
  • Interactive analysis and visualization of results
  • Use cases include academic research simulations, geophysical flow modeling, and validation of turbulence theories

Quick Start

Create default parameters, configure them for your problem, instantiate the solver, and run the simulation with time stepping.

FAQPage Schema
How do I run CFD simulations in Python for Navier-Stokes equations?

To run CFD simulations in Python for Navier-Stokes equations, use pseudospectral solvers with MPI parallelization. Configure parameters, instantiate the solver, and execute time stepping for 2D or 3D fluid dynamics models.

Can I use Python to simulate stratified and shallow water flows?

Yes, you can simulate stratified and shallow water flows in Python using pseudospectral solvers. The framework provides multiple solver types specifically designed for periodic-domain geophysical flow modeling and stratified fluid dynamics.

Do I need MPI and FFT support to run pseudospectral CFD simulations?

MPI and FFT support are optional but recommended for running pseudospectral CFD simulations. MPI parallelization enables high-performance execution across large computational domains, while FFT libraries provide the core spectral transformations.

What is the best way to set up a complete CFD simulation workflow in Python?

The best way to set up a CFD simulation workflow in Python is to create default parameters, configure them for your specific problem, instantiate the pseudospectral solver, and run the simulation with time stepping for complete output analysis.

Does this CFD framework validate simulation parameters to prevent configuration errors?

Yes, the CFD framework validates parameters to prevent configuration errors during simulation setup. Parameter validation occurs before execution to ensure the pseudospectral solver operates correctly and avoids invalid fluid dynamics model configurations.
