Abstract

This chapter provides information of Unified Platform for Aerospace Computational Simulation (UPACS) and discusses its capability in various numerical simulations. UPACS is a project to develop a common computational fluid dynamics (CFD) platform since 1998 at National Aerospace Laboratory of Japan. The purpose of the UPACS project is not only to develop a common CFD platform for parallel computing but also to cooperate and share in CFD works, which include development of programs, knowledge and information in numerical simulations, and validation and verification databases. The latest UPACS can successfully solve flows of rotating cascade in turbomachinery, flows around very complicated object using the overset grid method, and very low speed flows. It is also possible to solve flows and heat conduction simultaneously by coupling each other.
