SOLIDWORKS FLOW SIMULATION:
HVAC MODULE
The complete HVAC simulation tool
Flow Simulation For Every Engineer
SolidWorks Flow Simulation software is a powerful computational fluid dynamics
(CFD) tool that enables you to quickly and easily simulate fluid flow, heat transfer,
and fluid forces that are critical to the success of your design.
HVAC Design Module
The HVAC Design Module for SolidWorks Flow Simulation evaluates air and gas
movement in working and living environments. The HVAC module includes advanced
radiation modeling, comfort parameters, and a large database of building materials
Engineering Challenges - The HVAC Design Module for SolidWorks Flow
Simulation gives engineers great tools to tackle the tough challenges in design
efficient cooling systems for people and large scale environments.
Airflow Optimization - Managing the airflow within a large scale environment
is key to ensuring the optimum temperature is maintained for the largest
number of people possible.
Product Thermal Design - The HVAC module not only simulates the airflow
in the environment but also products in the environment. With its enhanced
tools set, designers can now analyze products considering more real world
behaviors.
SolidWorks Flow Simulation takes
the complexity out of computational
fluid dynamics for todays designers
and engineers. The HVAC module
encompasses industry specific tools,
practices and simulation methodologies.
Together they deliver unrivaled ease of
use, power and productivity.
Human Comfort Factors - The effectiveness of environmental control is
measured by the human comfort factors. These eight parameters measure
both the reaction of people to the environment as well as aspects of the
environment.
Industry Specific Tools - Aimed squarely at the mechanical engineer designing
air conditioning or large scale cooling equipment, the HVAC Module provides
great ease of use with great simulation power.
Advanced Radiation Modeling - The impact of thermal radiation, from the
sun, on environments cooling requirements can be large. Understanding the
impact of material choices requires sophisticated radiation modeling included
in the HVAC module.
Visualize human comfort factors with the
HVAC module.
Comfort Parameters - Predicted mean vote and predicted percent
dissatisfied are the two main (of eight) comfort parameters calculated by the
HVAC module. These two parameters indicate where the problem areas are,
allowing you to solve these problems ahead time before the cooling system
has been built.
Engineering Database - The engineering data base has been greatly enlarged
to include a range of building materials and fans. The new materials enable
building thermal analysis to be done quickly and efficiently.
The HVAC Module enables design engineers to quickly and accurately model
complex air conditioning and cooling systems for thermal analysis. With its
combination of ease of use and industry specific tools, the HVAC Module ensures
maximum analysis productivity with enhanced simulation fidelity.
