Autodesk to Acquire Blue Ridge Numerics, Inc.

Autodesk have announced an agreement to acquire Blue Ridge Numerics Inc. the developer of the popular CFD (Computational Fluid Dynamics) analysis application CFDesign.


CFDesign is used in many different industries to analyse and simulate the flow of liquids and gases within a given environment. If you've never seen CFD before, it is the kind of tool that a manufacturer would use to simulate the flow of air through a product to make sure it stays cool, or the flow of liquid through a valve to make sure you are reaching necessary throughput.

CFDesign is already integrated with Autodesk Inventor so that Digital Prototypes can be analysed quickly and easily using the CFD tools. Watch how the two products already work together:
