Executive summary
Common CFD performance bottlenecks — mesh, linear solve, I/O, post — and how custom development removes them. Audience: CFD software performance leads and solver architects.
If you stay generic
- Linear solvers and memory traffic dominate large RANS/URANS runs
- I/O and restart formats stall overnight campaigns
- Generic defaults waste iterations on your geometry class
If you commission custom work
- Profile wall-clock by mesh, assemble, solve, and I/O stages
- Tune sparse solvers and preconditioners to your matrix patterns
- Set performance budgets as release acceptance criteria
Why this topic shows up in discovery calls
Teams contact Hendoi when commercial CFD/FEA still leaves a gap in fidelity, prep time, or HPC scale. The metric that matters here is Wall-clock reduction on production-sized CFD campaigns.
Technical buyer checklist
- Are acceptance tests written on your geometries/meshes before coding?
- Do reports speak programme language — loads, margins, residuals that matter?
- Is IP portable if the vendor relationship changes?
- Are performance and robustness budgets release gates?
- Does the first release prove wall-clock reduction on production-sized cfd campaigns?
