Tecplot Inc. Releases Latest Innovation in Simulation Analytics: Tecplot Chorus
3 November, 2011
Greatly simplifies analyzing and managing multiple CFD cases to accelerate Engineering Decision-Making
BELLEVUE, Wash. – Oct. 26, 2011 – Tecplot, Inc. today announced the general availability of Tecplot® Chorus™, the first in a new category of simulation analytics products for engineers that integrates metadata analysis, post-processing, and simulation data management in one easy-to-use software tool. For the first time ever, Tecplot Chorus allows engineers to more easily discover trends and anomalies in computational fluid dynamics (CFD) studies and simultaneously gain insight into the underlying, fluid-dynamic phenomena that cause these variations, all in one environment.
Simulation analytics is the application of visualization, data management, statistics, and data mining to related collections of large datasets generated by computer-aided engineering (CAE) simulation software, especially CFD codes. As computing power continues to increase, the use of CAE analysis tools continue to grow leading to increasingly large collections of simulation results. Encompassing the capabilities of both business analytics tools and traditional post-processors, Tecplot Chorus enables engineers to discover and tap into the wealth of information hidden within simulation datasets, providing simultaneous analysis of the detailed field data and the associated key simulation result(s) as functions of input parameters.
“Almost every engineer we talked with told us they continue to face challenges in analyzing complex, data-rich projects, and have been eagerly anticipating the availability of a solution that provides a holistic view to their large sets of CFD data,” said Mike Peery, president of Tecplot, Inc. “Tecplot Chorus is the new generation of post-processing tools for engineers. The new paradigm of post processing is to simultaneously operate on sets of simulations instead of one at a time, and to take advantage of parallel computers to pre-compute visualizations. The unprecedented level of analysis enabled by Tecplot Chorus allows engineers to make more informed decisions faster, thus enabling companies to develop better products.”
In May 2011, Tecplot Chorus was introduced in beta to a select group of customers from world renowned aerospace organizations in the government and private sectors, in order to secure feedback on the product’s performance. During the trial, customers reported that Tecplot Chorus greatly simplified methods for examining overall trends in metadata resulting from multiple CFD simulations, boosting productivity as much as 20 percent.
