Mentor Graphics has released FloEFD v11.3 Concurrent Computational Fluid Dynamics (CFD) technology, a fully embedded solution for PTCs Creo Parametric, Creo Elements/Pro, and Pro/ENGINEER Wildfire design software. The solution works directly with native PTC product geometry to keep pace with ongoing design changes. Since designers are using the same geometry and a common user interface for CAD and analysis, FloEFD for Creo allows users to maintain a single set of data across the entire project design flow.

According to the company, a key benefit in using Mentor Graphics FloEFD for Creo is Concurrent CFD, which can reduce simulation time by as much as 65 to 75 percent in comparison to traditional CFD tools. Concurrent CFD enables users to optimize product performance and reliability while reducing physical prototyping and development costs without time or material penalties.

The solution enables a range of physical simulation capabilities for fluid flow, heat and mass transfer, including a special module for electronics cooling applications with extensive property libraries.
