Creating a Design Manager Project

In Simcenter STAR-CCM+, surrogate models are generated using Design Manager. Design Manager allows you to run Design of Experiment studies that generate the data points required for the surrogates.

You start this tutorial by loading the completed reference simulation and creating a Design Manager project.

To load the reference simulation file:

  1. Start up Simcenter STAR-CCM+ and select File > Load.
  2. In the Load a File dialog:
    1. Click Browse.
    2. In the Open dialog, navigate to the designExploration folder of the downloaded tutorial files and select junction_reference.sim.
    3. Click Open, then OK.
To create a Design Manager Project:
  1. Right-click the junction_reference node and select Create Design Manager Project.


  2. Save the Design Manager project as junction_withSurrogates.dmprj.
