13. Customer References
I have been impressed by CFD Canada Support Service, especially, Teaching engineers from
Dr. Kudriavtsev's eagerness and in-depth knowledge in answering Bombardier, Montreal
technical questions. It is a great pleasure to work with him.
His special training programs on advanced topics are also very useful
to understand its applications.

Getting Hands Dirty
I went to a CFDRC course in the end of October and that was quite helpful. I knew most of the
stuff that was being taught already but what was good about it was that I got a chance to ask a
bunch of questions (which I wouldn't have had the knowledge to ask otherwise) that had been
urning on my mind. CFD-GEOM and CFD-ACE(U) are behaving much better than Fluent/Gambit
and I am getting much more reasonable results.

CFD Canada support service, directed by Vladimir Kudriavtsev is an excellent source of supports.
Mr Kudriavtsev provides the customers with general and particular training sessions (at our office to
solve the company’s specific problems or more general and advanced topics at CERCA in Montreal).
He shows a great interest in his customer by answering specific technical questions, and being an
efficient link between us and the main office in Alabama.

CFD Canada’s service and support program, as directed by Dr. Kudriavtsev is outstanding. Dr. Kudriavtsev is a pleasure to work with and takes
a keen interest in his client’s problem at hand. One thing that impresses me the most is Dr. Kudriavtsev’s eagerness to tackle and solve challenging
technical problems in a prompt and efficient manner. I am very pleased with his work, and impressed with the level of support he provides through
CFD Canada and through CFDRC in Alabama. Hydrogenics Corp.
15. References from Selected Customers
I would like to give my highest recommendation to Dr. Kudriavtsev as an extremely knowledgeable an reliable source of support with the CFD
tools and methodology. I have known Dr. Kudriavtsev for the past 8 years through our collaborative projects while I was using CFD tools at
LSI Logic Corp., Process and Wafer R&D. At that time Dr. Kudriavtsev was involved in the process simulation model development. Dr.
Kudriavtsev is a very dedicated individual and has always produced what he promised in my dealings with him. With his research interest in
the very hot area of simulation and modeling of semiconductor processing he was able to attract considerable amount of customers for
CFDRC.
Dr. Valeriy Sukharev, LSI Logic Corporation
CFD Canada’s services and support program directed by Dr. Vladimir Kudriavtsev is excellent. Dr. Kudriavtsev provides outstanding support
and team leadership for our demanding CFD needs. CFD Canada training programs have brought several of our younger engineers up to
speed, yielding greater productivity to solve such state of the art problems for us such as thermal and stress analysis for suborbital reentry
vehicles. CFD Canada’s service programs have extended to additional support from CFDRC in Huntsville Alabama.

"You ask me for volumes, products, sales, productivity. But nobody ever asks me for creativity
technology, innovation. That's where I make my money. The point is not to get three dollars out
of the cost: The companies making the most money are the innovative ones, not the low cost
ones."

and Globalization
Spiral Groove Seal Example
I have contact to an interesting German company, PMDM (www.pmdm.de), they are a
fusion of a German and a Japanese company (Papst KG and Minebea Co Ltd).
They make motors for discs, interesting are the bearings. An engineer of them found
a NASA Paper which describes exactly his problem. One of the authors is you.
Vladimir Kudriatsev, Robert Hendriks, Jack Brown
"Computer Studies of Fluid Flow and Pressure distribution in spiral grooved seals".
The engineer, Mr. Tre…, wants to simulate his application and is asking for prices.
Same request came – from IBM (San Jose and NY) to analyize
bearings for disk drives; from Alaska – to analyze bearings for drill
platforms; from Taiwan –academic research
