CFD-FASTRAN is a commercial computational fluid dynamics (CFD) software package developed by Applied Materials for aerodynamic and aerothermodynamic applications.
[1] CFD-FASTRAN was used by the Council for Scientific and Industrial Research in South Africa to simulate the release of a missile from the outboard pylon of the BAE Hawk Mk120 at transonic speeds where shockwaves dominate the flowfield.
[2] The software was used to predict supercooled droplet impingement on helicopter blades by the Institute for Aerospace Research.
[3] CFD-FASTRAN was used to study the aerodynamic performance of a hypersonic vehicle powered by scramjet engines.
[5] CFD-FASTRAN was used to simulate flow past helicopter rotors in hover and forward flight conditions.
