Description
Patran offers an extensive array of tools designed to facilitate the development of models ready for analysis across various domains, including linear and nonlinear problems, explicit dynamics, thermal analysis, and more within finite element solutions. Its geometry cleanup features assist engineers in efficiently addressing issues like gaps and slivers present in CAD designs, while solid modeling capabilities allow users to construct models from the ground up. The software simplifies the mesh generation process on both surfaces and solids through a combination of fully automated meshing routines and manual techniques that afford users greater precision. Additionally, Patran includes built-in options for setting up loads, boundary conditions, and analyses compatible with leading finite element solvers, significantly reducing the need for adjusting input files. With its robust and industry-validated functionalities, Patran ensures that virtual prototyping is not only swift but also effective, enabling users to assess product performance against specific requirements and refine their designs accordingly. As a result, engineers can spend less time on setup and more on innovation and optimization.
Description
Thermal Desktop encompasses every facet of creating models, integrating various built-in objects like finite difference, finite element, and lumped capacitance that can be arranged in numerous ways. Users can incorporate thermal-specific components such as contact conductance, insulation, heat loads, and heaters, enabling the modeling of a wide range of systems from automotive parts to crewed spacecraft. The software features comprehensive parameterization, allowing input through variables and complex expressions instead of fixed numerical values. These variables, known as symbols, facilitate swift adjustments to models with minimal effort, simplifying the process of updating or maintaining them, as well as conducting sensitivity analyses and exploring hypothetical scenarios. Furthermore, this capability enhances access to SINDA/FLUINT’s modules for optimization and reliability, along with automated model correlation, ultimately enriching the modeling experience. By streamlining these processes, Thermal Desktop not only improves efficiency but also fosters innovation in thermal analysis.
