Having worked with a range of commercial CFD solvers over the years, I find this to be the most intuitive one I have used for every stage of the CFD process. Many other solvers tend to overwhelm users by presenting every possible option for case and solver tuning, but Azore organizes each part of your workflow, from mesh import and setup to post-processing, in a clear, linear manner. This structure makes setting up CFD cases efficient and direct, and the learning curve is very gentle. All available settings are easy to locate, and configuring or automating CFD runs with different boundary conditions is straightforward. The same ease of use extends to post-processing, where solution data can be quickly accessed and exported in a variety of formats. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
Azore is extremely capable with its incompressible RANS and URANS solvers, with k-e and k-w turbulence models, however these are all of the models available. It does have great features such as a great temperature and mixture model that is more accurate and intuitive than competitors, but if you want to analyze supersonic airflow or use any other turbulence models (let alone run eddy simulations) this tool is not for you. Additionally, running Azore efficiently on AMD processors requires extra effort, since the GUI version uses openMP rather than MPI, though MPI support is available through the command-line interface. The only other limitation is the absence of a direct meshing workflow, but mesh manipulation remains straightforward and user-friendly, as previously noted. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
