Pre/post environments

Three Siemens PLM Software for pre/post digital simulation environments offer CFD analysis as one of their modules (NX, NX I-deas, and Femap)

1] NX is the Siemens PLM Software leading product for enterprise-level computer-aided design (CAD), manufacturing (CAM) and engineering (CAE).

NX modules for general purpose CFD:

- NX Flow - NX Advanced Flow (add-on module to NX Flow) - NX Electronic Systems Cooling (for High Tech and Electronics applications)

2] NX I-deas has been considered one of the leading software solutions for digital simulation for nearly 20 years. It is a mature software.

NX I-deas module for general purpose CFD and electronics cooling applications: NX I-deas ESC

3] Femap is the world's leading windows-based engineering simulation tool for finite element analysis (FEA). It brings a complete range of powerful digital simulation solutions directly to the engineer's desktop easily and affordably.

Femap modules for general purpose CFD and coupled heat transfer simulations:

- Femap Flow - Femap Thermal - Femap Advanced Thermal
