Optimise designs when you need to improve pressure drop or flow distribution
Solve for all modes of heat transfer, from solid to solid or solid to fluid
Improve building efficiency with optimised HVAC design
Simulate interfaces between liquids and gases. Model flow phenomena like waves, sloshing and spilling
Analyse the interaction between solid objects in motion and surrounding fluid
Model condensation of a liquid from a moist gas
Identify effects of solar heating on energy performance and efficiency of a structure and its spaces
Determine smoke patterns as they fill a room to help identify design changes and exit sign placement
Analyse rotating devices surrounded by a static (non-rotating) frame of reference
Launch from CAD
Send CAD models to Autodesk CFD from Autodesk Inventor, Autodesk Revit, AutoCAD Architecture and AutoCAD MEP. Enjoy a simplified import of other third-party native CAD models.
Surface Wrap
Consolidate multiple bodies of a model using surface wrap, add an external volume and generate a quality mesh for transfer into Autodesk CFD.
Mesh import and adaptive mesh
Import existing mesh such as I-deas (.unv) or Nastran (.nas or .dat). Apply adaptive mesh sizing, which utilises a comprehensive topological interrogation of the analysis geometry to apply appropriate sizes throughout the design.
