As technologies continue to advance, computational science is entering a new era of capabilities and complexities. With applications spanning from Finite Element Analysis and Computational Fluid Dynamics to AI-accelerated simulation, engineers are working with larger datasets, intricate models, and a large volume of parallel workloads.
Computational Science is breaking limitations and is driving innovation across every major industry from agriculture and aerospace to manufacturing and drug discovery. As computational science models continue to grow in size and intelligence, the performance of the hardware beneath becomes a defining factor to the overall success of the computational science solution.
Computational Science refers to usage of high-performance computing to model, simulate, and analyze complex physical systems. Computational Science integrates the concepts behind mathematics, computer science, and domain-specific sciences to create models that run simulations, as opposed to being reliant on physical prototypes or analytical equations. Computational science applications like CFD are often ran on software systems like ANYSYS or COMSOL Multiphysics.
Benefits of Running Computational Science Applications:
These workloads require massive parallel compute, GPU-acceleration, high-bandwidth memory, and fast storage. Computational Sciences can be used across a broad scope of industry sectors, ranging from IT, healthcare, finance, and energy.
Ace Computers has spent over 40 years supplying trusted solutions to the federal government, state and local government agencies, higher-education institutions, and many others. All our systems are built and assembled in the United States and are TAA Compliant.
Ace Computers has collaborated closely with software vendors, research teams, and industry partners for validating updates, optimizing performance, and co-develop systems. Ace offers a unique hands-on engineering approach, so we are able to make sure all of our customers are given solutions that are not only high-powered but built for their environment.
Ace Computers introduces its very own line of HPC Severs with the Ace Powerworks Series. The Ace Poerworks Series is built to supply all the high-compute power required for running computational science applications. The Ace Powerworks Series is built to accelerate the speed and performance of your computational tasks.

The Ace Powerworks Series is engineered for simulation-heavy environments that require the following.
Our Ace Powerworks Servers provide all the compute power needed for running computational science applications. If you do not see a system that matches your workflows, reach out to an expert and we will help you procure a solution right for you.
A common misconception about software is that software is reliant on it’s own powering, however all simulation software is only as fast and strong as the hardware on which it runs. The most common types of software in computational sciences are ANYSYS, COMSOL Multiphysics, and GROWMACS; each software requires certain hardware specs for running as smoothly as possible.
The Ace Powerworks Series is built to support and accelerate both. Ansys has the capabilities to run computational fluid dynamic algorithms. To run CFD on Ansys a user needs to simply import geometry using CAD software, then the user will create a mesh with tools like SpaceClaim to divide the geometry into small cells and discretize the solution domain. After the first two steps are set up, simply define boundary conditions for the simulation, such as inflow/outflow conditions. Finally run the user will be able to run CFD on Anysys and then process lab results.
To make sure that your systems are ready for computational science, follow along with our checklist as we go over the key points of preparing your systems for computational science software.
Computational Science is set to bring forth innovation and take the world of technology into new heights. No matter the software you are running, the Ace Powerworks servers are built to deliver the required performance, reliability, and scalability for 2026 simulations. While choosing the software application is imperative, it is critical not to underestimate the importance of the hardware on which your software will run.
