To better understand how HPC solutions can be used in the space industry, we have chosen a use case regarding the development of better aerodynamic models.

Advanced computational and visualization capabilities allowed the models to be applied to complete, complex geometries. This was the first step towards being able to simulate a complete aircraft instead of having to proceed „piece by piece” as before.

Intensive computing capabilities allowed the team to develop and run the models in a more reasonable time frame than on their own infrastructure – hours turned into minutes and months into days. The project results were so promising that the team presented their work to industry leaders at a series of conferences, attracting attention from both Boeing and NASA. Ultimately, the goal is to develop a model that can be used in industry to more accurately model aircraft designs, leading to greater fuel efficiency, savings in research and development costs, and a variety of environmental benefits.
