Go Further - Flow Simulation

Wed, 08 Feb 2012 15:00:00 UTC

This Webcast will teach you how to use SolidWorks Flow Simulation, our second level fluid dynamics tool. We will show you how to simulate fluid flowing through or around your design. Alternatively you might need to establish why your design is getting too hot and how you can cool it down. Watch this webcast and you will discover how SolidWorks Flow Simulation allows you to find problem areas in your design and improve them before you manufacture any parts.

Agenda: -

Internal Flow Simulation.
External Flow Simulation.
Thermal Analysis.
Electronic Cooling Module Overview.
HVAC Module Overview.

Through a discussion and demonstration of industry-specific examples, this Webcast will show the benefits of using SolidWorks Flow Simulation in your design process.

Technical Manuals - Online

Wed, 22 Feb 2012 15:00:00 UTC

Producing traditional technical manuals can be time consuming and expensive but 3DVia Composer allows you to produce both static and interactive technical manuals that can be published online. These are more compelling and provide a higher impact for your customers. 3DVIA Composer also links directly to your 3D CAD models meaning design changes take minutes rather than hours.

Agenda: -

Join us for this Webcast to see how 3DVia Composer empowers you to produce more compelling technical manuals faster and at lower cost, while reducing levels of rework and lower¬ing production overhead.
