Aeolus Aero — Aeolus ASP

Aeolus, based in the French Alps, builds affordable, fast aerodynamic simulation software for aircraft and drone conceptual design. Its Aeolus ASP tool uses a boundary element method for high-speed, high-fidelity modeling of fixed-wing aircraft and propeller shapes, with built-in shape optimization that runs on a standard laptop.

Aeolus Aero GmbH, based in Kriens, Switzerland, builds Aeolus ASP, a tool for aerodynamic analysis and optimization of aircraft wings and propeller blades in the conceptual and preliminary design phases. It uses a three dimensional panel method solver that runs on a standard laptop, and supports parameter studies, wing and propeller shape optimization, batch mode and CAD/FEM export. Licensing is published and self serve: a free modeling only tier, Utility at $498 per year, Pro at $748 per year and Unlimited at $998 per year, with a 14 day trial and no credit card required.
