Vorcat, Inc. Announces Issue of Patent No. 11,809,794 by the United States Patent & Trademark Office (USPTO)
-- Patent covers a System and Method for Simulating Turbulence --
LOS ANGELES -- Vorcat, Inc. (“Vorcat”), a next generation Computational Fluids Dynamics (CFD) software company that focuses on research, development and commercialization of the most advanced CFD software simulation tools in the world, today announced that the USPTO issued Patent number 11,809,794 titled “A System and Method for Simulating Turbulence,” Specifically, the patent protects CFD simulations of configurations comprising of moving and/or rotating bodies (“moving boundaries”) utilizing either, (i) a direct simulation of each moving boundary in its non-inertial frame and mapping of vorticity sheets and vortex tubes to and from a single inertial frame where all tubes are convected or, (ii) when the moving boundary is a rotor blade, vortex tubes released from the blade are generated according to the real time conditions at the blade according to a rotor model selected from the group of actuator disk, lifting line, and lifting surface.
Use of CFD to optimize the design of emerging VTOL, EVs, inshore/offshore wind turbines, and wind farm configurations.
Wind turbine (WT) designers and wind farm developers are seeking improved design tools for maximizing power generation while minimizing the life-cycle cost of their onshore and offshore projects. The industry recognizes that key decisions required to achieve the lowest levelized cost of energy include wind farm: 1) site and WT model selection, 2) spacing or WT density, and 3) active control of each turbine’s operation considering blockage generated by interference of multiple turbulent wakes with the surroundings. Similarly, EV, VTOL and eVTOL designers are seeking improved design tools for maximizing vehicle range, battery lifetime, stability, and safety. The performance objectives of these emerging industries can best be fulfilled by utilizing Vorcat’s CFD modeling software enabled by the important IP protected in this recently approved patent application.
Jacob Krispin, Vorcat’s Chief Executive Officer, stated, "I’m proud of the Vorcat team’s progress in both protecting our valuable IP, and accelerating commercialization of our CFD enabled engineering design software. We look forward to providing our licensing partners the most capable software available on both cloud and enterprise platforms.”
About CFD Modeling
Computational Fluid Dynamics (CFD) is a commonly applied tool for generating solutions for fluid flows without requiring solid or physical interaction. In a CFD analysis, fluid flows are examined in accordance with physical properties such as pressure, velocity, temperature, density, and viscosity which are considered simultaneously. As a result, a virtual solution is generated for a physical phenomenon associated with fluid flow, without compromise on accuracy.
About Vorcat, Inc.
Vorcat is a US-based engineering software company that has developed a patented and revolutionary VORtex-based Computational Algorithm for Turbulence modeling. Our advanced software promises to eliminate, or significantly reduce, the need for costly, lengthy, and sometimes dangerous physical testing of innovative designs in major industries such as Energy, Automotive, and Aerospace. Our next-Gen “CFD” tools and Machine Learning/AI roadmap promises to be an extinction event for most wind tunnels, and the lower productivity of less experienced or newly graduated engineers. Vorcat software is fast, very accurate, easy to use, and unlike its competitors, it addresses turbulent flows without adhering to ad-hoc or empirical turbulence models; in other words, all flows are treated the same, no guesswork by the user is required. Vorcat’s attributes democratizes CFD usage, the software can be deployed in either the High-Performance Computing (HPC) Cloud or on desktop computers with commercially available hardware accelerators.
