Release Simcenter FLOEFD Version 2021.2.1

It is with great pleasure that we announce that Simcenter FLOEFD, FLOEFD for CATIA V5, FLOEFD for Creo, FLOEFD for NX, Simcenter FLOEFD SC and FLOEFD for Solid Edge version 2021.2.1 are available to download from Support Center.

New Features

The following new features are available in this release:

• 1D Elements.Increase simulation speed and reduce mesh requirements using 1D Elements within a 3D Simulation. Users can automatically convert a pipe into a chain of 1D Elements and solve their fluid and thermal interactions using 1D CFD embedded in Simcenter FLOEFD™ software, allowing the user to run simulations faster without compromising on accuracy. A dedicated 1D Elements GUI gives users the opportunity to define boundary conditions based upon geometry not present in the 3D Model providing accurate boundaries to a CFD simulation.
• New EV module. The new Simcenter FLOEFD EV module (MG287203FL) comprises various capabilities crucial for comprehensive multiphysics (thermal-electrical-electromagnetics-structural) analysis of e-Powertrain and its components such as battery, inverters, DC Links, IGBTs, MOSFETs, Busbars, ECUs. The capabilities include ECTM and ECM battery module, Joule heating, Membrane, Electrical Element, Electromagnetics, Structural, SmartPCB, Two resistor, Network assembly, PCB and Heat pipe compact models.

For a detailed list of new features, refer to Installation Instructions manual, available in the installed software tree or on Support Center
