Description
FLACS is a comprehensive yet simple tool for 3D modeling of explosion, dispersion and release 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 tries to bring better physical security to industrial environments. This program is widely used in the oil and gas industries and increasingly in the nuclear industry, which has a high potential in the explosion and dispersion of dust and toxic substances.
This software, by taking the power of CFD (computational fluid dynamics) for modeling and combining it with 3D graphics capabilities, enables accurate prediction of consequences and damages, as well as the possibility of predicting and displaying the side effects of these consequences, such as congestion and flooding and …. has A better understanding and higher accuracy of the results not only increase the level of security, but also allow designers to make reliable and correct options for design, thus improving both security and reducing final costs effectively.
Features and features of FLACS:
- The ability of integrated modeling of the explosion and dispersion of gases and toxic substances
- Showing the consequences of accidents in a completely three-dimensional way
- Manual and efficient editing of geometric structures
- Two-phase modeling
- Investigation of gaseous compounds
- Modeling transient events (time dependent)
- including side effects and preventive measures
- Valid and accurate results
- Different ways to display the results (2D, 3D, animation, text output)
- Better understanding of phenomena
- Comprehensive software guide
- And …

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 the 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 website of your hardware vendor for relevant updates.
