FLUENT for CATIA V5: Rapid Flow Modeling for PLM

FLUENT for CATIA V5 software brings fluid flow and heat transfer analysis into the CATIA V5 product lifecycle management (PLM) environment. It fully integrates FLUENT rapid flow modeling technology into the CATIA PLM process. Operating completely within the native CATIA data structures, FLUENT for CATIA V5 provides a full generative relationship between your manufacturing-ready geometry models and the flow analysis model. Design, analysis, and optimization happen all within the single workflow of the CATIA V5 PLM environment.

"The general trend of using integrated analysis as a decision support tool for the early design stage of a product is being driven by our users. This fully embedded and optimized CFD solution involving proven technology in our user's V5 PLM environment will accelerate their product development process. This collaboration with FLUENT demonstrates the power of the open SIMULIA platform and our CAA V5 architecture to deliver simulation tools for engineers involved in product design."
