Vortex Computational Algorithm software

It is based on a grid-free, hybrid vortex filament-sheet method and it incorporates the adaptive fast multipole methodology (FMM) for computational efficiency. Both serial and parallel codes are under development. VORCAT development was first funded by Department of Energy under a project that aims at simulations of automobile and energy related flow fields and Defense Threat Reduction Agency project that aims at the analysis of turbulent mixing properties. Following the early success of the R&D phase, KTI spun-off a new company, VorCat, Inc., which aims at the commercialization of the VORCAT software.
