Our Products & Services

Flomerics is a world leader in the computer simulation of engineering design processes involving fluid flow and heat transfer. Our customers accelerate and optimize their designs, eliminate mistakes and reduce costs by applying our simulation software and consultancy services before building physical prototypes. Unlike “traditional” analysis software, Flomerics’ software is embedded deeply into our customers’ mainstream design process enabling engineers to test, validate and optimize their designs as they are being developed.

As well as providing software, Flomerics offers a rapid-response consultancy service from simulation specialists for companies wishing to outsource some or all of their design & simulation work.

Engineering Fluid Dynamics (EFD) is a fully-featured general-purpose 3D fluid flow and heat transfer analysis software. EFD is designed for use by engineers and is radically different from traditional Computational Fluid Dynamics (CFD) software which has evolved for specialists. EFD completely removes the complexities of numerical/mathematical schemes and computational mesh creation from the user, allowing engineers to focus on optimizing their designs in the shortest possible time. EFD is tightly integrated with major MCAD systems including Pro/ENGINEER Wildfire, SolidWorks, and CATIA V5.

FLOTHERM - our first and most successful analysis software tool – is the undisputed worldwide market leader in thermal analysis of electronic equipment. Heat affects the reliability and lifetime of electronic equipment, and as processing speeds rise, functional density increases, and equipment becomes smaller, thermal problems intensify. Through techniques of computational fluid dynamics (CFD) FLOTHERM predicts airflow and temperatures throughout the equipment. This enables the engineer to identify the source of any over-heating, and to devise and test appropriate design modifications quickly and easily. Typical applications range from computers and telecommunications equipment to less obvious examples such as the control electronics for lifts and domestic hi-fi equipment. Important recent enhancements to FLOTHERM are:

• Integration with FLO/EMC, enabling thermal and EMC design constraints to be satisfied simultaneously
• Automatic Sequential Optimization
• Multi-level localized grid

FLOTHERM is the most established of our products and, together with associated modules and consultancy services, continues to generate the bulk of our revenues.

FLO/PCB is a new software tool for accelerating the conceptual design of high-density printed-circuit boards. FLO/PCB improves communication between product marketing, electrical and mechanical engineers, and enables teams of engineers to work together and consider layout and thermal issues as the functional description is being defined.

FLOPACK is a sophisticated web-based product that creates thermal models of integrated circuit (IC) packages and associated parts. The user inputs the major design parameters via the Internet, and the resulting models are imported directly into FLOTHERM.

FLO/MCAD enables parts and assemblies from Mechanical Computer Aided Design (MCAD) software (e.g. Pro/Engineer, CATIA, SolidWorks, Autocad) to be transferred easily and rapidly to and from FLOTHERM, FLO/EMC or FLOVENT for analysis. FLO/MCAD is more than just an interface program - it intelligently filters the geometrical data for a particular part or assembly and creates a simplified "thermal equivalent" – thus dramatically speeding up the analysis process.

www.SmartParts3D.com is a web-based library containing ready-to-run, validated models of common parts such as fans, heat sinks, enclosures and IC packages from various vendors. SmartParts3D.com saves a great deal of engineering time by eliminating the need to construct models of such parts from scratch.

Flomerics Design Services team provide a quick-response, low-cost consultancy service for customers who wish to outsource their design, simulation and/or testing. Our Design Services cover all aspects of Flomerics operations, including thermal and electromagnetic design for electronic equipment, and heating/ventilation design for buildings.

FLOVENT is a powerful Computational Fluid Dynamics (CFD) software that predicts 3D airflow, heat transfer and contamination distribution in and around buildings of all types and sizes. FLOVENT uses the same software structure and analysis engine as FLOTHERM, but the user interface is tailored specifically for building design. FLOVENT's fast and easy-to-use menu system is designed specifically for the design and optimization of heating, ventilating and air-conditioning (HVAC) systems. Typical applications include data centers and IT rooms, clean rooms, auditoriums, shopping malls, office buildings, underground car parks, passenger comfort in vehicles, airport terminals, etc, air quality and contaminant control in laboratories, research facilities, and hospitals.

MicReD (Microelectronics Research and Development) started as a spin-off company created by researchers in the Department of Electron Devices in Budapest University of Technology & Economics (BUTE).  MicReD is now part of Flomerics Group, and focuses on the thermal characterization of integrated circuit packages, MCMs and printed circuit boards. MicReD provides different software and hardware tools in this field as well as measurement services, consulting or contract research. MicReD’s “flagship” product is the T3Ster® (pronounced "Trister") – advanced transient temperature measurement equipment enabling rapid and extremely accurate thermal characterization of IC packages. MicReD’s most recent project is TERALED which provides advanced measurement solutions for power LEDs.
