The Fluid Dynamics Engineer Role, part of the\u00a03D<\/strong>EXPERIENCE\u00ae Works\u00a0portfolio, provides fluid flow and thermal analysis simulations to help guide the design process for\u00a0SOLIDWORKS\u00ae designers and engineers.\u00a0 It allows for evaluating optimal flow distribution, efficient thermal management, minimal pressure losses, and other performance criteria early in the design cycle. Fluid Dynamics Engineer enables design engineers to carry out high-fidelity internal and external fluid flow and thermal simulations, delivering actionable information to improve products while they are designing them.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Access to fast, accurate fluid flow solutions allows you to evaluate multiple designs. Possessing this information early in the design cycle can reduce costs while improving performance and quality.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Inspire Innovation<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n

In a typical design process for flow and thermal systems, designers or engineers create 3D models, which are then sent to a specialist for computational fluid dynamics (CFD) analysis and simulation. This typically takes several months, followed by physical testing. Fluid Dynamics Engineer is tailored for engineers who perform routine fluid flow and conjugate heat transfer calculations to guide design improvements while exploring innovative design concepts.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The solution leverages industry-standard, RANS-based finite volume CFD technology with a fully guided user experience. It enables users to quickly explore hundreds of designs while concurrently improving product performance. This allows designers and engineers\u2014even simulation novices\u2014to innovate simulation-driven designs.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

With Fluid Dynamics Engineer, simulation technologies are connected with\u00a0SOLIDWORKS\u00ae\u00a0and PLM, thanks to the\u00a03D<\/strong>EXPERIENCE Works connection, leveraging a single collaborative environment for end-to-end product development. Plus, high-performance computing capabilities on the cloud enable fast and powerful performance that doesn\u2019t depend on your local hardware resources.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Cloud Computing Power<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n

Cloud computing resources enable you to instantly leverage more power to perform simulations of any size or complexity whenever you need them.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Install and get started within an hour and expand beyond local hardware and software capabilities. Solve large, complex problems faster than in a desktop-only environment and purchase additional cloud credits anytime to increase computing resources as needed.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Because the 3D<\/strong>EXPERIENCE Works platform connects CFD simulations to SOLIDWORKS and PLM data, any design changes are easily updated in the simulation, and results are fed back into the 3D design immediately.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
