Envenio’s Ian McLeod is scheduled to present at the Teledyne CARIS Conference 2017 in Ottawa, Canada, which takes place June 17-22. His paper, entitled “High Resolution 3D Mapping For Current, Turbulence and Sediment Transport,” highlights an ability to be able to study a subsurface environment at a high resolution, thanks to the advancement and availability of computational fluid dynamics (CFD) techniques.
The CFD solver EXN/Aero is a simulation tool that reduces solve times , is hosted on an HPC cloud, and has a pay-per-use pricing model, the company reports.
In this study, McLeod describes a concept methodology for computing the flow field and an approximation of sediment transport in section of the Saint Lawrence River. The CFD domain extends (approximately) from the Quebec-Levis ferry route downstream to the eastern tip of Ile aux Grues. Bathymetric contour and surface current data was obtained from the the Canadian Hydrographic Service.
CARIS BASE Editor tools were used to pre-process bathymetric data sets. Envenio constructed
