Scalable, robust fluid flow

and thermal simulation solution

Fast, accurate, and flexible solution to test the

fluid flow and thermal performance of your design

Accurately predict behavior, optimize designs, and validate digital

prototypes with a wide range of simulation capabilities before

manufacturing

models with the CAD-embedded tools and

automation tools. To study the effects of varying

operating conditions or geometry changes,

clone your simulation models, and run your

scenarios sequentially or at the same time.

View and compare results from your simulations

both visually and numerically, and share your

findings with your team with a Design Study

Summary Report.

Autodesk SimStudio Tools

Quickly modify, simplify, repair, and idealize your

geometry for higher-quality simulation models.

Autodesk® SimStudio Tools software reads in

multiple CAD file formats so you can quickly

simplify assemblies, eliminate unnecessary detail,

perform basic repair, or make design changes —

making it faster to explore various design ideas.

SimStudio Tools is a direct modeler that enables

you to freely work on geometry with simple

defeaturing, move, combine, edit, push, and pull

commands. It acts as a companion to Autodesk

CFD and your CAD system, helping you take an

existing model and get it ready for simulation.

Create solid and surface bodies, quickly simplify or

remove small parts, create custom fluid volumes,

detect and eliminate interferences, and more

without affecting your original CAD model. Once

your model is ready you can either push it straight

into Autodesk CFD or save a neutral file for any

other work you may want to do with it.

Autodesk® CFD software provides fast, accurate,

and flexible fluid flow and thermal simulation tools

to help predict product performance, optimize

designs, and validate product behavior before

manufacturing—minimizing reliance on costly

physical prototypes and helping you get innovative

products to market faster.

Autodesk CFD enables users to easily explore

and compare design alternatives and better

understand the implications of design choices

using an innovative Design Study Environment

and automation tools. Autodesk CFD supports

direct data exchange with most CAD software

tools, including Autodesk® Inventor® software,

Autodesk® Revit® software, PTC Creo®, Siemens

NX, and SolidWorks®.

Autodesk CFD provides a complete offering

of capabilities, including thermal prototyping,

architectural and MEP tools, and flexible cloud

solving options:

Design Study Environment

Study design iterations within an intuitive

workflow. Drive innovation by providing product

teams with data to make informed design

decisions. Use the Design Study Environment for

all stages of your design simulation process. You

can manually set up individual models directly

in the Design Study Environment or on multiple

Flexible cloud solving options

Autodesk CFD Flex allows you to work locally

while you solve in the cloud. Flexible solving

options help you to simulate based on your needs.

Test the setup of an analysis, and use your local

resources to iterate and optimize your setup. To

kick off a longer, more computationally intensive

simulation, use the power of the cloud and free

up your local resources for other tasks.

CAD connection

Link your CAD system to Autodesk CFD analysis

software to create associative fluid flow and

thermal simulations. Autodesk CFD connects to

virtually any CAD system, enabling you to create

fluid flow and thermal simulations of your designs.

If you don’t have a 3D CAD system, use SimStudio

Tools for geometry creation and model editing and

simplification.

Automation scripting

Improve your design process—use the flexible

Autodesk CFD application programming interface

(API) to automate and customize a wide variety

of tasks. Automate repetitive tasks normally

performed in the user interface. Create custom

tasks and custom results quantities. Output results

in customized or specialized formats.

Intelligent automatic mesh sizing

Use geometry and solution-based meshing

automation. Meshing technology helps you quickly

and eciently prepare geometry for accurate and

repeatable results with automatic mesh sizing,

geometry diagnostics, manual control options

over local sizes and refinement regions, and

solution-based adaptive sizing.

High-quality visualization

Combine analysis results from Autodesk CFD

with dedicated visualization tools to create

photo-realistic renderings. Gain interoperability

with Autodesk® Showcase®, Autodesk® VREDTM,

Autodesk® 3ds Max®, and Autodesk® Maya®

software.

Autodesk CFD industry applications

Industrial flow control

Autodesk CFD can help manufacturers of flow

control devices like valves, regulators, turbines,

and compressors to simulate the fluid flow through

a 3D CAD model. The intuitive interface works

directly with your Inventor or other

3D CAD models.

Advanced physics available in Autodesk CFD

help you solve tough design challenges. Tackle

compressibility problems such as supersonic flow,

water hammer, or even cavitation. Fluid mixing,

particle tracking, mechanical erosion, and the

interaction of moving solids are some

of the capabilities that our customers utilize to

gain insight and improve product performance

and longevity.

Electronics cooling

Use Autodesk CFD to test the thermal performance

of your electronics designs. Tackle challenges such

as optimum locations of heat sinks and heat pipes,

thermal management, and transient effects.

Autodesk CFD contains material devices and

idealizations integral to simulating e-cooling

effectively. Devices in Autodesk CFD include

heat sink, compact thermal, LED, thermal

interface material, fan, PCB, and thermoelectric

cooler models.

Architectural and mechanical,

electrical, and plumbing

Architects and mechanical, electrical, and

plumbing (MEP) professionals can take advantage

of Autodesk CFD to understand airflow and

thermal behavior in the built environment.

Effects like solar radiation, thermal comfort, air

quality, and energy usage by air conditioning units

are typically studied to create optimal interior or

exterior design spaces.

Reduced testing time: Finish Thompson

Finish Thompson cuts testing time by an estimated

33 percent on a new line of magnetic drive pumps

using Autodesk® CFD.

Autodesk CFD software helped Finish Thompson’s

engineering team gain insight into pump

performance early in the product design process—

allowing them to cut development time and

substantially reduce the amount of physical

prototyping and testing required.

Ease and eciency of use:

Betts Industries, Inc.

Betts Industries, Inc., designs, engineers,

manufactures, and sells components for highway

cargo tanks and other industrial applications. The

company chose Autodesk CFD software to design

a new model of its pressure/vacuum vent, to

ensure that they could use native data for design

studies without hiring a specialist or outsourcing

the work.

“With Autodesk CFD, we could easily see the

flow inside the model, where it was moving

quickly, and where the pressure pockets were

—something you can’t do in real life or on a

flow bench.”

— Kyle Anderson, Design Engineer,

Betts Industries, Inc.

Virtual product development:

Parker Hannifin

The world’s leading manufacturer of motion and

control technologies and systems, Parker Hannifin

provides precision-engineered solutions for a

wide variety of mobile, industrial, and aerospace

markets. Engineers for its Hydraulic Controls

Division in the United Kingdom were unable to

solve an instability issue with a wheel loader spool

design after 18 months of applying conventional

design, build, and test methods. They used

Autodesk CFD software to create a virtual product,

identify the problem, and design the solution.

“Autodesk CFD gives us a better

understanding of product performance and,

in turn, enables us to develop cost-effective,

innovative, and more reliable designs in less

time than using conventional methods of

building and testing physical prototypes.”

— Bruno Fairy, Simulation and Analysis Engineer,

Hydraulic Controls Division Parker Hannifin
