Product Features
Rapid Flow Modeling for PLM
As leading providers of Computational Fluid Dynamics (CFD) and PLM solutions,
ANSYS, Inc. and Dassault Systèmes, respectively, have worked together to develop
FLUENT for CATIA V5 software. The tight development partnership between the two
companies has resulted in a complete CFD process, from geometry conditioning to
post-processing, residing entirely inside the CATIA V5 interface. This integrated solution enables companies to perfect product performance early in the design cycle.ANSYS, Inc. has more than 20 years of CFD experience. The ANSYS network of offices and distributorships guarantees nearby access to its services in the local language.
Workflow
® ® Fully CATIA V5 PLM-based workflow
FLUENT for CATIA V5 software brings fluid flow and heat transfer analysis into theCATIA V5 product lifecycle management (PLM) environment. Operating completely
within the native CATIA V5 data structures, FLUENT for CATIA V5 provides a full generative relationship between manufacturing-ready geometry models and the flow analysis model. It reduces the cycle time for CFD analysis by 60 percent or more,
enabling a simulation-based design approach in which design, analysis and optimization happen all within the single workflow of the CATIA V5 PLM environment.
This results in better-performing products designed in a shorter time.
