Simcenter M-Star is a GPU-native CFD solution that uses lattice Boltzmann methods to simulate complex transient mixing processes involving particles, heat transfer and multiphase flows in agitated tanks and bioreactors.

Unlike conventional CFD solvers that typically rely on CPU-based finite-volume approaches, Simcenter M-Star combines GPU acceleration with lattice Boltzmann technology to efficiently simulate highly transient mixing applications.

Simcenter M-Star supports mixing, stirring, fermentation, particle transport, heat transfer, chemical processes, free-surface flows and multiphase process simulations.

Simcenter M-Star is used by process engineers, R&D teams and scientists across pharmaceuticals, biotechnology, chemicals, and food and beverage to better understand and optimize mixing-driven processes.

Simcenter M-Star combines GPU-native performance, high-fidelity transient physics and an efficient workflow to make large-scale mixing simulations practical within engineering project timelines.

The lattice Boltzmann method models fluid behavior at a mesoscopic level, making it well suited for complex geometries, multiphase flows, particle interactions and highly transient phenomena.

Yes. Simcenter M-Star was designed as a GPU-native solver rather than being adapted from a CPU-based architecture. It is designed to leverage modern GPU hardware, enabling users to run complex simulations faster and more efficiently than many traditional CPU-based approaches.

Organizations in pharmaceuticals, chemicals, energy, food and beverage, consumer products and advanced manufacturing benefit most from Simcenter M-Star, particularly where mixing and process performance are critical.

By providing fast simulation turnaround times and detailed insights into transient process behavior, Simcenter M-Star helps teams evaluate designs earlier, reduce physical testing, and identify scale-up risks before they reach the plant, leading to decisions made with greater confidence.
