Abstract :
This paper describes Floasys, a web-based platform to foster the collaboration among Computational Fluid Dynamics analysts and to promote model reuse by centrally managing simulation data and providing metadata annotations and search functionality over them. In this way, CFD analysts access to simulation data and results performed by different engineers and are able to leverage on them to make the right design decisions.
