Course Description
The I-deas NX Femap Thermal/Flow course provides students with comprehensive instruction in how to model heat transfer and fluid flow problems using I-deas NX Femap Thermal/Flow. Participants will learn the skills necessary to carry out sophisticated thermal and CFD analysis quickly and easily, including geometry construction and manipulation, meshing, fluid flow and heat transfer modeling, boundary condition application, solution setup, post-processing and model validation. The course deals with both theoretical and practical aspects of how the software handles fluid flow and heat transfer, and includes a variety of examples and tutorials addressing a wide range of applications.
This course is intended for:
- Designers
- Engineers who need to model and simulate heat transfer or fluid flow in components or complex systems using Femap Thermal and Flow
New
- None. Any knowledge of Femap will help, especially meshing and creating/manipulating element groups.
