Episode description

Today I’m talking with Kelly Senecal, one of the founding team behind Convergent Science. He tells me about how the days spent hand-crafting meshes led to them to develop CONVERGE CFD - a CFD package which automagically handles meshing for you. Kelly & I discuss:​ • how they get along fine without a company president; • how CONVERGE was almost open-source & how they're pioneering a hybrid (open & closed source) model with their take on user-defined functions; • why there's more to CONVERGE than just automated meshing; • how they compete in the marketplace especially when the sales process involves displacing a-n-other code; • a nugget of advice for those just starting out & worried about competing with the bigger players in their market; LINKS • CONVERGE CFD – https://convergecfd.com/ • CONVERGE CFD on YouTube – https://www.youtube.com/user/convergecfd
