“Aviza Technology utilizes CFD-ACE+ to simulate fluid flow, heat transfer, and chemical reactions to evaluate process uniformity within our variable batch systems used in semiconductor wafer processing.  With ESI Group’s software, we are better able to predict quickly the performance of many different hardware design prototypes to converge on a final design that provides extremely uniform conditions for each wafer within the batch.  As a result, CFD-ACE+ has enabled substantial cost and time savings, since it allows us to evaluate rapidly the performance of various designs without cutting hardware.”

--Dr. Jeff Bailey, Manager, Engineering Research and Development, Aviza Technology, Inc.

“CFD-ACE+ has helped us significantly increase the efficiency and life of proton exchange membrane fuel cells (PEMFCs) by reducing variations in flow between the individual cells, and within individual cells.”

-- Sanjiv Kumar of Ballard Power Systems, Burnaby, British Columbia.

“The CFD-ACE+ simulation package has been an integral part of our design process for many years. Virtual prototyping with CFD-ACE+ does deliver accurate results reliably and leads to performance improvements, yield enhancements and significant cost savings."

-- AIXTRON AG, the world leading supplier of equipment for semiconductor epitaxy
