About BARAM
- Offers advanced simulation capabilities for turbulence modeling, including Spalart-Allmaras, SST, standard, RNG, realizable, LES, and DES
- Supports comprehensive heat transfer analysis with natural/forced convection, conduction, and conjugate heat transfer
- Handles compressible flow with pressure-based solvers for incompressible to subsonic flow and density-based solvers for subsonic to supersonic flow
- Enables multiphase simulations using Volume of Fluid for multiple phases and cavitation models like Schnerr-Sauer, Kunz, and Merkle
- Provides species transport with buoyancy and diffusion, alongside user-defined scalar transport equations with or without flow calculation
- Includes non-Newtonian models such as Bird-Carreau, Cross power law, Hershel-Bulkley, and Power law
- Simulates rotating machinery with Multiple Reference Frame (MRF), Sliding Mesh, Actuator Disk, and Fan boundary condition options
- Models porous media using Darcy-Forchheimer, Power-law, and Porous jump boundary conditions
- Facilitates batch runs with user-defined parameters in csv and xlsx formats for condition setup
- Delivers detailed monitoring and reporting of residual values, forces, coefficients, and variables like age, y+, Q, vorticity, heat flux, heat transfer coefficient, shear stress, total pressure, and Mach number
- Supports multiple mesh types including OpenFOAM PolyMesh, Fluent (.msh/cas), Gmsh (.msh), I-deas Universal (.unv), and StarCCM+ (.ccm)
- Imports STL files with automatic detection of closed surfaces, surface splitting by feature angle, and support for simple native geometries (Hex, Sphere, Cylinder) and non-watertight surfaces
- Generates meshes for external and internal flows with cell zones, conformal/non-conformal interfaces, multi-region meshing for OpenFOAM, and refinement based on surfaces, edges, volumes, gaps, and curvature
- Builds boundary layers and scales efficiently with parallel meshing, with the ability to export 3D meshes as 2D or axi-symmetric
- Allows mesh manipulation through scaling, translation, and rotation
