EasyCFD_G is a Computational Fluid Dynamics (CFD) software tool for the numerical simulation of two-dimensional fluid flow in a boundary fitted structured grid.
EasyCFD_G is based in a user-friendly graphical interface, allowing the user to easily draw the geometry, impose boundary conditions, control calculation parameters (subrelaxation coefficients, advection schemes, etc) and post-process the results. Geometry definition can also be done by importing data from a DXF file or a point data file.[1]

Main Features
EasyCFD_G is a 2D simulation software based on a finite volume method approach. Transport equations are solved in a collocated grid using the SIMPLEC algorithm. Some of its features are listed next.
| Laminar or Turbulent flow | Conduction in solids and conjugate heat transfer |
| Isothermal or non-isothermal flow | Multicomponent fluids |
| Steady-state or transient flow | Transport of passive scalars (eg. smoke) |
| Numerical grid generation | Geometry import from DXF or point data files |
