Description

FLACS is a comprehensive yet simple tool for three-dimensional modeling of the explosion, dispersion, and emission of toxic gases and flammable materials. FLACS is actually an industrial standard for modeling the explosion and combustion of flammable materials using computational fluid dynamics, which seeks to provide better physical security for industrial environments. The program is widely used in the oil and gas industry and increasingly in the nuclear industry, which has great potential for the explosion and dispersal of dust and toxic substances.

With the help of CFD (Computational Fluid Dynamics) for modeling and combining it with 3D graphics capabilities, this software makes it possible to accurately predict the consequences and damages, as well as the possibility of predicting and displaying the side effects of these consequences such as density and flooding. And. Has. A better understanding and higher accuracy of the results will not only increase the level of security, but also allow designers to have reliable and accurate design options, thus both improving security and effectively reducing final costs.

Technical Requirements

Since May 27, 2016, FLACS v10.5r1 has been available. It is delivered for Microsoft Windows and for Linux. FLACS v10.5r1 has been tested on the following platforms (64 bit):

Microsoft Windows:

  • Windows 7
  • Windows 8.1
  • Windows 10

Linux distributions:

  • openSUSE 13.1, 13.2, 42.1
  • CentOS 5.x, 6.5, 7
  • Ubuntu 12.04, 14.04, 16.04
  • Fedora 21, 22, 23
  • Debian 7, 8

Red Hat Enterprise Linux 5.x and 7.x is expected to be FLACS v10.5r1 compatible since it is compatible with CentOS 5.x and 7.x, respectively.

It is well possible that FLACS runs on other Linux distributions or versions, too. Please get in touch with flacs@gexcon.com if you encounter problems when installing or using FLACS on a specific distribution or version.

Hardware requirements:

  • Processor architecture: AMD64 / Intel 64 / x64 (64 bit) are supported. Intel IA64 (Itanium) is not supported.
  • Internal memory: 2GB or more recommended.
  • Free hard drive capacity: 1 GB for software installation and typically 100 GB for simulation data.
  • Graphics card: a graphics card with NVIDIA chip set is recommended. Graphics cards using, eg, AMD or Intel chipsets may work, but support and testing are limited to NVIDIA.

Other requirements:

  • For Flowvis 5, it is recommended to use the latest graphics driver version available for the target hardware. To use the 3d plot-type in Flowvis 5, a graphics card / driver that supports OpenGL version 3.3 or higher is required. If insufficient OpenGL support is detected, Flowvis 5 will still run, but the 3D plot type might not work. Installing a recent graphics driver may solve this problem. Check the web site of your local hardware for relevant updates.
