NEW YORK, NEW YORK AND LONDON, UNITED KINGDOM AND PARIS, FRANCE -- (MARKET WIRE) -- Jul 01, 2010 -- "It's a community thing," says Stephen McIlwain, CD-adapco's Director of Support. "We are constantly surprised by the degree of innovation that our users bring to STAR-CCM+, often writing macros and scripts that enhance STAR-CCM+ in ways that we never would have imagined. JAVA™ Hut fosters this collaboration and communication among the CD-adapco user community for those wishing to extend their use of STAR-CCM+ by sharing and downloading JAVA™ scripts."

Using the modern software architecture of JAVA™, engineers using STAR-CCM+ in their engineering processes are further enhancing the potential of the code by scripting JAVA™ applications that link directly into the STAR-CCM+ suite. The JAVA™ apps are being used to deeply integrate STAR-CCM+ directly into engineering processes, to provide fully automated CAE simulation suites, extend applicability of the toolset into new areas, and link directly to other CAE tools.

The intention of JAVA™ Hut ( http://javahut.cd-adapco.com) is to provide a collection point for STAR-CCM+ users to share JAVA™ scripts which they have developed for STAR-CCM+ and also download JAVA™ scripts from other users that they might find helpful in their analyses. CD-adapco also provides a forum for users to rate the usefulness of the application, provide feedback for the author and suggest possible enhancements.

"With new developments in technology and social networking, CD-adapco stays in the forefront of the CAE industry by offering its customers tools to enhance productivity and to get the most from STAR-CCM+," explains McIlwain. "It is extremely important that we continue to create new methods for our customers to be successful and get even more out of one of the world's best CFD codes. JAVA™ Hut is just another way for us to do this."

JAVA™ Hut is available for CD-adapco customers to use now.
