Realistic Heat Transfer Simulation
Thermal management is a major consideration for a wide range of products, including industrial machinery, automobiles and consumer electronics. The objective of any thermal management solution is to maintain a product’s temperature within a range that is optimal for performance. Accomplishing this may require the removal or addition of heat, either passively or in an actively managed fashion, and this can be evaluated using thermal analysis software. The Simcenter 3D suite of solutions includes comprehensive, best-in-class thermal simulation capabilities that can help you to understand the thermal characteristics of your product and subsequently tailor your thermal management solution for optimal performance.
Conduction
Realistically and accurately simulate real-world conduction problems. Generate crucial insight concerning thermal distributions throughout contiguous structures and liquids.
