Femap Thermal/Flow

Femap Thermal/Flow - integrated multi-physics solvers for Femap Femap Thermal Femap Thermal includes both the transient and steady-state thermal analysis capabilities required to solve the majority of common engineering problems. Capabilities include the modelling of:

  • conduction,
  • convection,
  • radiation and
  • phase change

Femap Thermal provides a range of thermal boundary conditions, solver controls and thermal modelling tools for assemblies. This thermal coupling capability allows users to create paths for heat to flow between parts in large, complex assemblies.

Femap Advanced Thermal

Femap Advanced Thermal adds many advanced thermal and fluid flow modelling capabilities to the Femap Thermal package. For example, fluid duct flow modelling includes coupled convection and fluid flow analysis.
An extensive set of tools for advanced radiation and spacecraft modelling includes:

  • solar and orbital heating,
  • orbit modelling and display,
  • specula reflections with ray tracing and articulating structures

Femap Advanced Thermal also includes advanced solver features such as custom user subroutines, model simplification, sub structuring and interfaces to industry thermal codes.

Femap Flow

Femap Flow provides a comprehensive 3D computational fluid dynamics (CFD) solution fully integrated within Femap. When combined with Femap Advanced Thermal, it solves a wide range of multi-physics problems that involve fluid flow and heat transfer.
Both low speed and high-speed compressible flows can be modelled. The Femap Flow solver uses an efficient and robust element-based finite volume, multi-grid solver to compute 3D fluid velocity, temperature and pressure for both steady-state and transient applications.

Forced flow, natural convection and mixed flows can be modelled with multiple inlets, outlets and internal flow boundary conditions.

For electronics cooling applications, the package easily models fan curves, inlet and outlet resistances as well as convection from thin structures.

Rotating systems, moving walls, flow turbulence models, humidity and other features are available for the most advanced fluid flow modelling requirements.
