Simulating and Optimizing Flow Fields

Details

Overview

Join us for this web seminar, where the presenter will discuss analyzing the inside of an oven, making sure the heat flow inside is even and what this means for the overall design of the finished production line. To illustrate this, the presenter will show you how easy it is with FloEFD to simulate the design of the mixing processes for analysis, analyze them and then evaluate the results. The presenter will then go on to show you how to perform "what-if" analysis by simply modifying the MCAD geometry of the model and viewing the simulation results for the new model.

What You Will Learn

  • Perform analysis using a FloEFD wizard and a familiar CAD interface
  • Visualize fluid and thermal flow in a virtual 3D environment
  • Understand the impact of design changes and how it can effect fluid flow around a product
  • Export detailed reports to Microsoft's Word and Excel
