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 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.

Digital “what if” analysis capabilities

Conduct “what if” analysis digitally with free surface flow simulation, lighting and radiation capabilities.

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.

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.

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.
