SOLIDWORKS Flow Simulation is a computational fluid dynamics (CFD) tool seamlessly integrated into SOLIDWORKS CAD software. It allows product engineers to quickly and effectively simulate fluid flow, heat transfer, and fluid forces, enabling numerous "what-if" studies in realistic environments. By comparing different simulation studies, users can achieve design optimization and enhance product performance. The software drives engineering goals, simplifying CFD analysis and supporting concurrent engineering approaches for key decision-making. Add-on modules are available for specialized simulations, including HVAC (radiation and thermal comfort) and Electronic Cooling (virtual models and material libraries).
