General Purpose Fluid Flow and Heat Transfer Analysis
for Popular CAD such as CoCreate and SpaceClaim
FloEFD is a full-featured general purpose fluid flow and heat transfer simulation tool serving the needs of mechanical CAD users.
FloEFD combines all simulation steps – starting with use of your CoCreate or SpaceClaim solid models for model preparation to mesh generation,
solving and results visualization – in one easy-to-use package.
The FloEFD interface will be very familiar to you. Its interface is very intuitive and offers the same time-saving and ease-of-use
functionalities as those offered by leading mechanical computer-aided design systems. Therefore, FloEFD can easily fit within your
design process by using your solid models without any cumbersome data transfers or complications.
Since FloEFD is a flexible tool, it has been used in the design of various products from across a wide range of industries such as aerospace,
automotive, medical devices, industrial machinery and pumps/ valves. It has been used by engineers around the world to

- Improve product performance, functionality and reliability
- Reduce physical prototyping as well as production costs
- Minimize risk of making design mistakes
Combined with your mechanical CAD software, FloEFD provides you with a powerful simulation tool and reduces the need
for building multiple costly physical prototypes.
Setting New Standards ...
For analysis to become an integral part of the design process, it must not only be easy to use but also adapt readily
to your design process. Because FloEFD is developed by engineers for engineers, it is perhaps the easiest-to-use CFD
package commercially available today. Its interface is very intuitive and features functionalities that are familiar to
mechanical engineers using MCAD tools.
In addition, with FloEFD you have the option of either using your 3D CAD solid models for analysis or creating one from scratch.
FloEFD offers a fully integrated solid modeler offering feature-based part and assembly modeling capabilities so you can build
models effortlessly. You can even make real-time design changes with drag-and-drop ease through dynamic editing of features and
sketches.
Finally, FloEFD offers effortless model preparation. It features a powerful Wizard to guide you through the analysis process.
It then uses the parameters you’ve input into the wizard to create an optimum mesh for your problem. FloEFD even automatically
considers difficult areas like small gaps, or sharp corners and adapts to them. Or conversely, use its advanced mesh controls to
further optimize the mesh – with FloEFD the meshing process is completely transparent and you’re not forced to use a “black-box”
approach.
With FloEFD you don’t have to change the way you design… you simply drop FloEFD into your product development process and become
productive fast.
