SOLIDWORKS Flow Simulation

SOLIDWORKS Flow Simulation is a powerful computational fluid dynamics (CFD) tool built directly into the SOLIDWORKS design environment. It enables engineers and designers to visualize and analyze how gases and liquids interact with their models under real-world conditions.

Flow Simulation helps you design with confidence. It is useful for managing airflow in electronics. It also optimizes cooling systems. Additionally, it ensures fluid pressure in pipes. With its intuitive setup wizards and engineering-focused interface, Flow Simulation makes CFD accessible to designers and engineers without requiring deep fluid mechanics expertise.
