Fluent is a Windows utility for simulating fluid flow physical models. It can be used for shape optimization and turbulence emulation. This functionality is helpful for designing projects in multiple engineering fields.

Workflow

You can import 3D models from several popular CAD applications such as Blender. There are powerful tools for running parametric studies to optimize the product design. It is possible to morph the shape of any surface and see the impact in real time.

Advanced electronic cooling analysis can be performed. Users are able to calculate the condensation and evaporation rates for custom printed circuit board designs.

Please note that the free trial version of Fluent will stop working 30 days after activation.

Simulation instruments

The program allows you to construct appropriate heat exchangers and emulate battery physics. These features are intended for maximizing energy efficiency and safety of the product as well as for reducing the manufacturing cost and testing time.

There are tools for calculating electric engine properties. Users can perform electromagnetic, thermal and mechanical analysis. Moreover, it is easy to simulate rotating elements like fans or pumps to increase overall design efficiency and durability.
