CFTurbo 2026 R1.0.126 _CFTurbo FEA 2026 R1.0 CFTurbo is powerful, yet easy to use, pump design software that can help you design pumps from scratch or redesign existing impellers. Simply tell it the flow rate, head, RPM, and any (optional) pre-swirl and CFTurbo will automatically generate a pump design. You then have the option of going back and changing any details of the design with CFTurbo’s guidance. This easy, but flexible, approach to pump design saves you time and still lets you get exactly the pump design you want. 3D CAD modelDynamic 3D-representation (rotate, move, zoom)Highly configurable partial viewsExport of CAD modelImport of existing geometry for comparison Parametric geometry modelProperties of all design steps available as parametersParametrics can be exportedOptionally,...
BIOVIA Pipeline Pilot 2026 v26.1.0.1865 Leveraging BIOVIA Pipeline Pilot and its Collections, users author data pipelines, or protocols in Pipeline Pilot, to deliver integrated, data-driven solutions, and potentially combine them with other BIOVIA applications to augment out-of-the-box capabilities. Operationalize Data-driven and AI-based WorkflowsData has become ubiquitous. However, many scientific and engineering-based organizations still struggle to effectively utilize the data at their disposal. Teams use different tools and processes to access data, clean it, model it, and deliver results, but these results often lack the domain depth needed to drive innovation. This disjointed, and often too generic approach, to analyze scientific and engineering data and deliver insights lowers trust in results, obstructs progress, and stifles collaboration. To fully benefit from the...
