FloEFD Standalone version does not require pre-installed CAD-systems, is based on advanced technology Computational Fluid Dynamics (CFD) and allows you to analyze a wide range of complex problems, including:
• Analysis of hydro-aerodynamics and heat exchange of two- and three-dimensional models

• Analysis of external and internal flow streams
• Analysis of steady and unsteady flow
• Flow of incompressible fluid and compressible gas, including including combustible mixture, in subsonic, transonic, supersonic and hypersonic modes of flow
• Water vapor condensation
• Calculation of relative air humidity in gas flows
• Flow and non-Newtonian fluids (only laminar flow regime)
• Flow in compressible fluid (fluid density depends on pressure)
• Flow in real gases
• Laminar, turbulent and unsteady flow analysis
• Analysis of eddy flows and fans
• Flow analysis with solid inclusions
• Analysis of heat transfer within and between liquids and solids
• Analysis of the transmission inside solids in the absence of washing flow
• Calculation of thermal contact resistance
• Calculation of electrical contact resistance
• Thermoelectric coolers
• Heat transfer by radiation
• Joule heating
• Flows with gravity effects (also known as buoyancy effects)
• Porous media
• Heat pipes
• Heat transfer in printed circuit boards
• Heat transfer in perforated plates
• Current of aerosol flows
• Considering the roughness of bodies during flow
• Accounting for the tangential movement of the walls (mixing and rotation)
• Flow in rotating devices
• Cavitation in fluid flow
• Combustion in gas mixtures
FloEFD for NX-CATIAV5-Creo-Solid Edge applications for modeling the flow and heat transfer in liquids and gases in the environment of the corresponding CAD-systems.
FloEFD is fully integrated into the environment of the corresponding CAD-systems and uses solvers based on computational fluid dynamics (CFD) technology
Main advantages
For CAD-dependent versions, work directly with the model in the environment of the corresponding CAD
There is no need to convert the 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 result, errors in the process of synchronization of the set hydrogasdynamic problem and 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 the liquid / gas.
The same graphic controls are used as in the other modules of the corresponding CAD.
Very easy to learn
Easy to use
Uses a tree of CAD model elements.
Intuitive and fully interactive
Use when creating a project / processing the results of model elements selected in the graphic 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 animation
Multi-configuration support model
For an effective multi-parameter study, the possibility of project cloning, automatic start of a series of calculations are implemented.
Automated to reduce the number of cases where the analysis of formulation and calculation results requires the involvement of specialists in the field of fluid dynamics and heat transfer
Reliable and fully automatic grid generator
A unique model of turbulence and boundary layer is used.
Automatic control of solution convergence.
Reliable and accurate numerical methods and physical models
A large set of physical models
Exact solution
Ability to calculate very complex structures and physical phenomena.
Additional Information: The release also contains installations for solvers for Linux64. These are solvers only, without GUI. To use them you need to prepare the source data in versions for Windows
