code_saturne & csauto: Automating CFD Campaigns
The second webinar in a Series dedicated to improving the EDF open-source simulation ecosystem user experience
Are you running parametric studies with code_saturne, copy-pasting folders manually, tracking cases in spreadsheets, and re-running simulations one by one? Are you looking for a faster, cleaner, more reproducible way to manage your CFD campaigns?
This webinar is for you!
Through a complete workflow walkthrough, a live demonstration, and practical guidelines, discover how csauto turns code_saturne into a true campaign engine - from a single case to dozens of parametric variants, executed and monitored at scale.

Why participate?
Through contact with code_saturne users, the Simvia teams have identified recurring obstacles:
- Setting up a parametric study means copy-pasting folders manually
- Tracking which case ran, failed, or finished is a spreadsheet nightmare
- Going from 1 simulation to 40 feels like 40x the work
- Reproducibility breaks down - a teammate cannot easily re-run a study six months later
This webinar shows you how to overcome these obstacles with:
- code_saturne, used efficiently from the very first case
- csauto, our open-source automation tool for CFD campaigns
- A real-time web dashboard for campaign monitoring
Agenda (30 minutes + Q&A)
