Implicit Design, AI & Next Gen Design Tools: Inside nTop’s Bold New Design Frontier

DesignnTop Fluids

nTop Fluids uses a lattice Boltzmann solver to evaluate heat exchanger performance without traditional meshing, removing the bottleneck of generating and solving complex CFD meshes for thousands of design iterations.

“with end top fluids, Mainly right now for internal flow for heat exchangers primarily. We've seen this just big bottleneck whirl, just meshing the heat exchangers really hard and solving the CFT to calculate the pressure drop is really hard. And so on top fluids, kind of, it solves that because it's a lattice Boltzman solver, which doesn't require a traditional conformal mesh.”

DesignLLMs (Claude, OpenAI, Google)

nTop explores integrating Large Language Models to assist engineers in writing the code and algorithms for parametric models, lowering the barrier to entry by automating the setup of design experiments and Python integration.

“we're seeing some, some interesting potential in integrating LLMs into EndTop to basically lower the barrier to entry to building these models. So you can basically be like, hey, actually, help me parameterize a 2 panel lambda wing, an end top, and the LM could help you round a rise there.”
