ICON’s solutions streamline the simulation process by speaking the language of the aerospace engineer — not the CFD specialist. Our intuitive pre-processing tools focus on essential engineering inputs like flight conditions, launcher attitude, engine(s) parameters, freeing you from technical modeling concerns such as compressibility effects on turbulence models and numerical schemes. By embedding continuously improving best practices, ICON maximizes the power of your simulations, allowing you to stay focused on refining your designs while we handle the complexities.
Precision made effortless ! ICON’s fully automated high-fidelity mesh tools deliver exceptional quality directly from tessellated CAD. During simulation setup, you won’t be asked to define “refinement levels” for each part—our intelligent processes automatically select the optimal meshing parameters for every component of your geometry. With guaranteed 100% layer mesh coverage down to y+ 1, our solution ensures accuracy and efficiency. As pioneers in body-fitted automated parallel hex-dominant meshing, ICON continues to set new standards in precision for vehicle aerodynamics.
Our advanced simulation capabilities allow us to accurately model multi-species exhaust plumes for launch vehicles, capturing the complex interactions between rocket exhaust gasses and the surrounding environment. Our tools account for multiple species with varying properties, providing highly detailed insights into plume behavior under various conditions. Whether you’re analyzing plume expansion or ground-level effects, our simulations ensure precision and reliability, helping you optimize engine performance and ensure safe, efficient launches.
To achieve the highest standards of accuracy and reliability, ICON has partnered with industry leaders. Our unique access to invaluable experimental data from in-service launchers has allowed us to rigorously verify our tools and develop validated best practices that you can apply to your projects.
