Naval Surface Warfare Center, West Bethesda, Maryland, USA -- www.dt.navy.mil

The Carderock Division of the Naval Surface Warfare Center (NSWCCD) is the Navy's center of excellence for ships and ship systems. They have been ANSWER users since 2000, and use ANSWER for electronics cooling applications' simulations.

Demokritos National Center for Scientific Research, Athens, Greece -- ipta.demokritos.gr

The "Research Reactor Laboratory" of Institute of Nuclear Technology & Radiation Protection at "Demokritos" has been using ANSWER since 2001. The Laboratory operates a 5 MW open pool research nuclear reactor which is mainly used for irradiation purposes, material science applications (neutron diffraction) and neutron activation analyses. Thermal-hydraulic and neutronic calculations are performed for reactor safety analyses. Also, modeling work on aerosol dynamics has recently initiated, including analysis of aerosol flows using CFD.

IDOM Engineering and Architecture Consultants, Bilbao, Spain -- www.idom.es

IDOM has been using ANSWER in their consulting projects since 2000. They have done some exciting architectural analysis projects, including the Study of Wind Effects on the Tower of the Bilbao International Exhibition Centre, as well as a similar study for the now-world-famous Marqués del Riscal Winery in Bilbao, designed by world-renown architect Frank O. Gehry. Another interesting project was the simulation of a mandrel used in manufacturing of wind turbine blades' composite components. Heat transfer during the setting of composite was the main issue in this analysis.

GE Aircraft Engines, Cincinnati, OH, USA -- www.geae.com

GE Aircraft Engines is the world's leading manufacturer of military and commercial aircraft jet engines. The company produces and services large and small jet engines for airlines, charter and leasing companies, and military aircraft.
