(London England, 16 January 2008) – Flomerics Ltd. has announced that EFD.Pro, its fully embedded Computational Fluid Dynamics (CFD) solution for Pro/ENGINEER, will support Pro/ENGINEER Wildfire 4.0. EFD.Pro belongs to a breed of CFD tools which offer comprehensive fluid flow and heat transfer analysis capabilities to non-specialized users. Unlike other CFD programs, EFD.Pro works directly with native Pro/ENGINEER geometry – with no translation or copies - in order to keep pace with on-going design changes. “EFD.Pro is a very popular mission-critical application among the Pro/ENGINEER user community,” said Roland Feldhinkel, director of product development at Flomerics. “Therefore, we maintain a strong working relationship with the development group at PTC to ensure uninterrupted support for our combined users.”
With a common look and feel to that of Pro/ENGINEER, EFD.Pro users are not forced to learn a new environment simply to run the software. This enables engineers to focus on solving their engineering problems instead of ramping up their skills in new software. EFD.Pro sets itself apart from traditional CFD software with seven key technologies making it easier to use, more robust, and more accurate. Another unique capability in EFD.Pro is the ability to examine a solid model in Pro/ENGINEER and automatically detect fluid regions – a time consuming process in traditional CFD software. Lastly, EFD.Pro also offers an integrated interface to Pro/ENGINEER MECHANICA® that enables users to pass pressure and thermal loads for quick, pain free multi-physics analyses. EFD.Pro is used by best-in-class manufacturers to optimize products within the aerospace, automotive, consumer goods, electronics cooling, HVAC, medical device and valve industries.
About Flomerics Flomerics (www.flomerics.com) is a world-leading developer of engineering simulation software and services for analysis of fluid flow, heat transfer and electromagnetic radiation. Flomerics' business model, called “Design-Class Analysis” is drastically different from traditional analysis because its software is designed to be embedded deeply into the design process for use by mainstream design engineers, not just by analysis specialists.
