Loci-Stream Pricing

 

The field of computational fluid dynamics (CFD) is often opaque with regards to software pricing. Many companies have pricing that is dependent on the revenue of the customer and the large companies often have an à la carte pricing scheme that requires customers to pay additional fees if they want to utilize more computational cores. There is a reticence to publish prices directly on a web page within the CFD industry. We believe that open and up-front pricing is the best way for consumers to quickly and painlessly make purchasing decisions.

Base Code Pricing

The Loci-Stream code has a base functionality with optional modules that add extra capabilities. These modules are not included in the base price. Below is a table of the annual pricing for the base version of Loci-Stream. If the annual licensing prices of Loci-Stream are not within your budget, consider using Loci-Stream on demand at Amazon Web Services. See our AWS page for more information about this option.

We offer a free 30 day trial of the full code capability.

  • Each license comes with 10 hours of free customer support.

  • Additional customer support can be provided at a fee of $100/hr. It can be purchased in units of 10 hours.

  • During the licensing period you will have full access to all new updates which will be periodically sent by Streamline Numerics.

VOF Module Pricing

A third-party volume-of-fluid module is available from the CFD Research Corporation (CFDRD). This module contains capabilities for simulating complex fluid flow phenomenon involving surface tension, droplet breakup, phase change, and agglomeration. The capabilities of this module are briefly outlined in the VOF capabilities section. The licensing and pricing for this module is determined by CFDRC on a per-case basis. Contact us if you are interested in licensing the VOF module.

Flamelet Module Pricing

A flamelet module is available, which contains a computationally efficient way to simulate reacting flows compared to finite-rate chemistry simulations. The capabilities of this module are briefly outlined in the Flamelet capabilities section. See the Users’ guide on our documentation page for a detailed description of the capabilities of the module.

Cavitation Module Pricing

A cavitation module is available, which provides capability for simulating flows that undergo phase change. The capabilities of this module are briefly outlined in the cavitation capabilities section. See the Users’ guide on our documentation page for a detailed description of the capabilities of the module.
