IVRESS/CFD is a CFD post-processor, which allows visualization of large-scale steady-state and time-dependent CFD datasets.

IVRESS/CFD allows users to construct the visualization scenario using a user-friendly graphical-user interface.

IVRESS/CFD Global and Local visualization objects designed to allow easy change of the object parameters and reduce visual clutter.



  • Extensive library of flow visualization tools: surface and volume shading, stream/streak objects, particle animation, etc.
  • Flow feature extraction (Vortex cores, separation/ attachment lines and surfaces, and iso-surfaces).
  • Probes: most objects can be used as interactive probes.
  • Large-scale time dependent datasets.
  • Display in multi-screen immersive stereoscopic virtual-reality facilities.
  • Virtual widgets (buttons, sliders, checkbox, textbox, etc.).
  • Scene graph capability.
  • A highly efficient point search algorithm that allows constructing the visualization objects at interactive frame rates.
  • Natural language interface through IVRESS/agent hierarchical rule-based intelligent agent.
  • Optional IVRESS/Player web browser plug-in for fully web-enabled CFD datasets visualization.
