Abstract: Computational fluid dynamics (CFD) is a branch of fluid mechanics that uses numerical analysis and data structure to analyze and solve problems that involve fluid dynamics. The computations rely on a mesh that discretizes the physical domain. These are used by the CFD solver to construct control volumes and to do simulations. Meshing is computer-intensive and meshing tools are not easy to use, being a lot of them interactive shells without GUI. The accuracy of the numerical solution depends on the quality of the computational mesh. In this regard, this FMP presents Evoker, a platform as a Service (PaaS) solution, that will allow to do 3D scientific visualizations and to generate and refine complex 3D meshes from point cloud in a web-based zero-installation client-server architecture. Evoker is designed to make good use of the compute nodes of the system leveraging High-Performance Computing (HPC) techniques. Evoker is launched as a customizable, cloud, meshing tool GUI adaptable to specific fluid-related scientific fields. Concretely, in this work Evoker demonstrates its versatility when used in waste water tanks, providing a friendly user interface and capable of leveraging underlying computational resources.
