معرفی نرم افزار CRTech Thermal Desktop For AutoCAD
Thermal Desktop is a PC
based design environment for generating thermal models of electronics and
vehicles. Using Thermal Desktop, engineers can use CAD drawings either directly
as a thermal model, or indirectly as scaffolding for fast "snap on" attachment
of Thermal Desktop elements, surfaces, and solids. Thermal Desktop incorporates
both familiar parameter based (TRASYS like) finite difference surfaces with
finite elements with CAD technology to model thermal problems. Thermal Desktop
develops the capacitance and conductance network for input to SINDA/FLUINT.
Thermal Desktop has thermal analysis specific type of capabilities such as
applying contact conductance, insulation, heat loads, and
heaters.
Thermal Desktop provides full design parameterization using
spreadsheet-like variables and arbitrarily complex expressions as input, rather
than hardwired numbers. This allows complex models to be rapidly manipulated
using a few keystrokes, meaning that updating or maintaining a model is
trivially easy, as is performing sensitivity studies and investigating what-if
scenarios. This provides access to SINDA/FLUINT"s Optimization and Reliability
Engineering modules, which can be used to size components, maximize performance,
find worst-case operating conditions (design cases), correlate models to test
data, and even treat uncertainties statistically.
