Description

AKL FlowDesigner is an advanced computational fluid dynamics (CFD) software that facilitates wind analysis by allowing users to effortlessly import 3D models of structures or urban blocks created with modeling applications like Autodesk Revit, GRAPHISOFT ARCHICAD, Rhinoceros, and SketchUp. This software supports BIM capabilities in IFC format, making it a valuable tool for architects, designers, engineers, and consultants who can leverage it early in the design phase to comprehend and visualize airflow around their projects. By conducting early analyses, professionals can significantly decrease design time while also making a strong impression on their clients. The CFD simulations offered by AKL FlowDesigner provide substantial advantages in the architecture, engineering, and construction (AEC) sectors. Previously, simulating airflow was a daunting and time-intensive process that necessitated extensive technical expertise; however, with AKL FlowDesigner, users can easily create simulations and analyze airflow within minutes, eliminating the need for an engineering background or intricate calculations. This user-friendly approach opens up the world of CFD to a broader audience, empowering more individuals to enhance their design projects.

Description

FormIt Pro is exclusively part of the architecture, engineering, and construction collection. This user-friendly 3D sketching application is designed specifically for the conceptual design stage, allowing users to create and modify designs from anywhere at any time within a robust and straightforward environment. It aids in making educated design choices by taking into account factors such as site conditions, solar effects, and energy assessments. Additionally, it seamlessly integrates conceptual designs into Building Information Modeling (BIM) workflows through its native Revit compatibility. The professional version of FormIt not only encompasses the functionalities found in the standard app but also includes advanced Dynamo computation and enhanced collaboration and analysis tools. Users can benefit from improved interoperability between FormIt Pro and Revit, enabling direct importing of FormIt files into Revit projects. This allows for the establishment of roundtrip workflows that enhance design exploration, offering more intuitive modeling capabilities within FormIt. Furthermore, the tool facilitates a smoother transition between initial and later design phases, supporting both 3D sketching and detailed documentation tasks effectively. Overall, users can expect a more cohesive experience that optimizes their design processes.
