FloEFD for Siemens Simcenter3D Applications for fluid and gas flow and heat transfer simulation in the Siemens Simcenter3D environment. FloEFD is fully integrated into the iemens Simcenter3D environment and uses computational fluid dynamics (CFD) based solvers.
Main advantages
Working directly with the model in the Siemens Simcenter3D environment

There is no need to convert geometry to another format, which often leads to a loss of quality.The task of calculating fluid dynamics and heat transfer at any time is fully synchronized with the model
Minimization of efforts, and as a consequence, errors in the synchronization process of the set fluid dynamics problem and the model
Automatic detection of changes in the model.

There is no need for "manual" construction of the geometry describing the area occupied by the liquid / gas

Automatic detection of the area occupied by liquid / gas.

Uses the same graphical controls as other PTC Creo Parametric modules

Very easy to learn
Easy to use
Uses the PTC Creo Parametric model tree.

Intuitive and fully interactive
Use when creating a project / processing results of model elements selected in the graphics window / model tree
Visualization of calculation results in the form of static and animated images directly in the graphics window
Support for exporting results to MS Excel, Word. The ability to play and record animations.
Support for multi-configuration of the model.
For an efficient multi-parameter study, there are implemented - the ability to clone projects, automatic start of a series of calculations.

Automated to reduce the number of cases when it is necessary to involve specialists in the field of fluid dynamics and heat transfer to analyze the formulation and calculation results

Reliable and fully automatic generator of computational grids
A unique model of turbulence and boundary layer is used.
Automatic control of the convergence of the solution.

Reliable and accurate numerical methods and physical models

Large set of physical models
Exact solution
Ability to calculate very complex structures and physical phenomena.
