Solid Edge Flow Simulation

Simcenter FLOEFD for Solid Edge supports flow simulation with an embedded computational fluid dynamics (CFD) simulation tool for easy, fast and accurate fluid flow and heat transfer analysis.

Capabilities

Front-loading CFD for engineering predictability

Fully embedded in Solid Edge, FLOEFD enables design engineers to front-load CFD, moving simulation early into the design process where it can help examine trends and eliminate less desirable design options.

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 user interface (UI) offers considerable intelligent automation so it’s easy to use for the design engineer and powerful enough for the analysis specialist.
