Fluid Flow Simulation With COSMOSFloWorks
Fully embedded inside of SolidWorks, COSMOSFloWorks is perfect for the engineer who needs flow analysis, but is not necessarily an expert in the field of fluid simulation.
Whether you are developing a valve for medical industry, HVAC duct, an electronic enclosure cooling system, an automotive component, aircraft wing, or an exhaust valve, using COSMOSFloWorks early in the product development cycle can help you build a better product in less time.
What do you get?
The only computational fluid dynamics package which combines a high level of functionality with ease of use meaning you don't need to be an expert to analyse your product.
