Solid Edge Flow Simulation
Flow simulation for computational fluid dynamics (CFD) in Solid Edge
FloEFD for Solid Edge supports flow simulation with an embedded CFD simulation tool for easy, fast and accurate fluid flow and heat transfer analysis.
FloEFD for Solid Edge is the only frontloading computational fluid dynamics analysis tool that is fully embedded in Solid Edge. Frontloading CFD refers to the practice of moving CFD simulation early into the design process where it can help design engineers examine trends and eliminate less desirable design options.
Capabilities
Embedded CFD simulation for fluid flow and heat transfer analysis
FloEFD for Solid Edge is especially well-suited for use during the design process as it reduces overall time to a solution by as much a 65%-75% compared to other CFD tools. The award-winning FloEFD CFD solution automates the most onerous CFD steps and helps engineers to immediately prepare and analyze their Solid Edge models.
Accurate, fast and easy-to-use fluid flow and heat transfer simulation
Used by engineers across the globe, FloEFD technology offers answers to complex engineering problems quickly without sacrificing accuracy.
Fully integrated preprocessor, solver and post-processor
With FloEFD you need only one fully integrated package to analyze your designs. Featuring automated meshing and robust convergence criteria, FloEFD speeds up the overall design process.
Integrated parametric study and design comparison functionality
Understand influence of changes in the geometry or boundary conditions on the results by comparing a wide range of project variants. Assess results by numerical values, graphs or animations.
Digital “what if” analysis capabilities
Conduct “what if” analysis digitally with free surface flow simulation, lighting and radiation capabilities.
Instinctive user experience
An easy-to-use GUI offers considerable intelligent automation so it’s easy to use for the design engineer and powerful enough for the analysis specialist.
