FLOW-3D Cast v4.0.2 aims to further streamline your simulation workflows by enabling you to more quickly set up simulations, avoid common errors, identify and enter missing data, and postprocess results to produce critical and useful information faster. The new version of FLOW-3D Cast offers powerful improvements in FlowSight, an updated Thermal Die Cycling model and time-saving simulation pre-check tools. Using the Thermal Die Cycling model, core and liners inserted into a die assembly and removed after each cycle can now be modeled by defining special types of components. Unlike other parts of the die that are reused after each cycle and thus retain their temperature history, the temperature of cores and liners is reset at the beginning of each cycle. At the die open stages, the die is also cooled at the parting line. The cooling at the parting line can also be modeled by defining two die components in contact.
