Software makes multi-physics electronics simulation realistic

CRADLE SOFTWARE CFD V2020 software suite provides co-simulation and post-processing capabilities that make it easier for engineers to analyze multi-physics problems and analyze mixed fluid-particle interactions. Product blends state-of-the-art with practical tools that deliver real, tangible value to customers. Software suite comprises scSTREAM (structured mesh) and scFLOW (next-generation unstructured mesh) Computational Fluid Dynamics (CFD) technology. Integration with system modelling software is also enhanced. Building on the open Functional Mockup Interface (FMI) integration is already provided, connecting directly with more 1-D simulation tools. This enables customers to model complete products including electrical and mechanical subsystems in conjunction with the software’s built-in thermodynamics. Users can easily map the heat transfer between electrical components using firm’s HeatPathView tool to visualize these multi-physics interactions.
