Today Iā€™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 the 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;
