HENFLOW
HENFLOW is Hendoi’s CFD desk for aeronautical and aerospace programmes: physics through hypersonic, specialised vehicle paths, flight campaigns, post & PDF reports, validation, and thirteen HENAI CFD pillars. Geometry from HFOIL; suite meshes from HENMESH.
Keep CFD inside the aerospace domain. HENFLOW specialises in flight programmes so automation and reports speak the language of Cl, Cd, shocks, wakes, and mission phases — not generic CAE menus.
Signature capabilities
HENFLOW is scoped to aeronautical and aerospace programmes only: aircraft, airfoils, UAV/eVTOL, rotorcraft, propellers, turbomachinery, rockets/missiles, and wind-tunnel style cases. Not automotive, marine, HVAC, or chemical CFD.
Project manager, physics (incompressible → hypersonic), aerospace BCs, specialised solvers, flight envelope, post-processing, PDF reports, optimisation, validation benchmarks, HPC foundations, and HENAI — organised as an aerospace desk.
Prepare geometry in HFOIL (CAD), mesh and quality-gate in HENMESH, then import the suite package into HENFLOW for solve, post, and PDF reports.
ISA atmosphere, altitude, Mach, Reynolds, dynamic pressure, totals, AoA/sideslip, wind and gust — applied consistently to BCs, solver choice, and reports.
Pre-Processing, Solver Control, Flow Analysis, Performance, Design Opt, Results, Flight Condition, Aerodynamics, Aircraft Performance, Airframe Design, Engineering Assistant, Aero Optimization, and Next-Gen — local advisors plus OpenAI via Hendoi with Apply.
Setup review, solver/BC/mesh suitability, convergence hints, flow interpretation, and structured report drafting. OpenAI never invents Cl/Cd or replaces the Navier–Stokes path.

Full feature catalogue
Organised for flight programmes — with Production / Foundation / Roadmap maturity and applyable HENAI JSON in the desktop app.
Typical workflow
Start from Project / Modules — airfoil, wing, aircraft, UAV, eVTOL, high-lift, rotorcraft, rocket, and more.
Load suite.json + bridge + VTK so Mach, α, zones, MRF/overset, and nozzle flags seed the case.
Confirm Flight Condition Manager values; choose physics regime and rebuild aerospace BC defaults.
Dispatch Euler / SA / SST / 3D / density- or pressure-based families. Automation can polar-sweep then run the design point.
Inspect Cp, residuals, forces, shock/sep diagnostics; export PDF aerospace reports; optionally run Validation.
Use the thirteen CFD AI pillars for setup, solver control, flow analysis, or report drafting — without inventing coefficients.
Who it serves
HENFLOW is Hendoi’s native desktop CFD workbench for aeronautical and aerospace programmes: external and internal aerodynamics, compressible regimes, flight-condition campaigns, specialised vehicle modules, aerospace outputs, validation, and thirteen HENAI CFD pillars — not a general industrial CFD suite.
Learn
Import a HENMESH suite package, set project/physics/flight, run a monitored solve, and optionally ask HENAI — native desktop aerospace CFD.

Straight answers about aerospace-only CFD scope, HENAI, HFOIL/HENMESH handoff, and licensing.
HENFLOW is Hendoi’s native desktop CFD product for aeronautical and aerospace analysis only — project/physics/BC shell, specialised vehicle paths, flight campaigns, post & PDF reports, optimisation, validation, HPC foundations, and thirteen HENAI CFD pillars.
No. It deliberately excludes automotive, marine, chemical processing, and HVAC domains so aerospace engineers get deeper workflows and automation.
No. HENAI is an engineering assistant across thirteen pillars (setup, solver control, flow analysis, performance, design opt, results, flight condition, aerodynamics, and more). Coefficients and fields come from the CFD solvers — never invented by the model.
Typical chain: prepare geometry in HFOIL (CAD) → mesh and quality-gate in HENMESH → import the suite package and solve in HENFLOW. Analysis/CFD formerly in HFOIL now lives here.
Native desktop builds for Windows, Linux, and macOS (C++20 / HendoiUI). Commercial, lab, and academy licensing is available worldwide via Contact.
The product catalogues capabilities as Production, Foundation, or Roadmap. Core external-aero paths, flight manager, SA/SST/Euler families, outputs, and HENAI pillars are available; DES/LES and some specialty paths remain foundation/roadmap. Low-Mach preconditioning exists but is not yet production-validated.
