Simcenter

Simcenter is a full-featured 3D computational fluid dynamics analysis solution built into major MCAD systems such as Siemens NX, Solid Edge, Creo, CATIA V5 and SolidWorks. It tightly integrates with the inventor. Fast to learn and easy to use, Simcenter eliminates the workflow complexity and meshing overheads of other CFD software.

Benefits of Simcenter

  • An intuitive user experience – short learning curve
  • Unique solver – getting accurate results fast for highly complex geometry
  • Use of native data – no translation or fluid body creation
  • Powerful parametric study and design comparison functionality for easier what-if analysis
  • Up to 75% faster simulation cycle with CAD embedded Concurrent CFD

Capabilities of Simcenter

Advanced module for combustion and hypersonic fluid displacements

Simcenter enables accurate simulation of airflow in the hypersonic regime, including key physical effects such as high-temperature ionization and viscosity. For combustion modeling, the module manages the thermal effects of gas mixture combustion, supporting advanced analysis of complex, high-energy systems.

Fast Cartesian mesh with automatic detection of fluid and solid regions

Meshing is automated for even the most complex CAD geometries using SmartCells technology. By combining Cartesian meshing with analytical or semi-empirical solver models, Simcenter delivers accurate results with fewer mesh elements, significantly reducing meshing and solve time.

Parametric study

Simcenter allows engineers to compare multiple design configurations and operating conditions to understand the impact of geometric or boundary changes. Results can be reviewed as values, graphs, or animations, enabling faster and more informed design decisions.

Dedicated module for the analysis of the cooling of electronic components

This module supports detailed thermal analysis of electronic systems using large databases of fan curves, packaging materials, and component models. Specialized physics, including PCB modeling and Joule heating, enable accurate simulation of electronic cooling performance.

Dedicated module for thermal analysis of LED lights

The LED module includes advanced radiation models such as discrete ordinates and Monte Carlo, accounting for absorption and refraction in transparent materials. It accurately predicts operational light output (hot lumens) and temperature, making it ideal for LED and lighting applications.

Dedicated module for HVAC

The HVAC module provides specialized tools for heating, air conditioning, and ventilation analysis. Comfort parameters help evaluate occupant thermal comfort and ventilation efficiency, while advanced radiation modeling enables more realistic environmental simulations.

From Our Customers

- Greg Young StackTeck

“At StackTeck, we pride ourselves on delivering great customer experiences, so we are very pleased to have found a CAD partner in DesignFusion that mirrors this. With a tight timeline, a very complex upgrade and no room for error, they succeeded in not only upgrading our environment, but making quality-of-life improvements and educating along the way. Thank you guys and great work!”

- Dany Lapointe Rotobec

"My experience with Design Fusion can be summed up in a few words: efficiency and professionalism. We are always answered quickly in case of concern and the help provided is well targeted and they always manage to clearly identify the problem. We have been working with them for almost 15 years and they have a solid team in both PLM and CAD. I am proud to count among the clients of such a professional and dynamic team!"

- Donato Rossi CPC Pumps

“Design Fusion is a collaborative team whose efforts are a great asset to formulating practical solutions with real-world results. The services and applications they offer have assisted in developing new solutions and workflows for trouble shooting time sensitive issues; that would otherwise cost significantly, if other outside resources were used.We continue to work with them and look forward to the new developments their brands have to offer.”

- Vincent Adinkrah SPS

"No simulations task too small or too complex. Whether a discrete CFD, thermal or strength analysis or in combination, the Engineering Team brings their knowledge of multiple industries, materials, NX Simulations and Flow FD to ensure the uniqueness associated with all simulations are kept front and center.”

Case Study

Simcenter Femap with Nastran plays a critical role in the design of NASA’s new Orion spacecraft

Lockheed Martin Space Systems

“Using Simcenter Femap, you can view your model in a lot of different ways, and turn different elements and geometry on and off. This helps us double-check and catch mistakes.”
- Eric Lewis, Stress Analyst and Senior Staff Engineer Lockheed Martin Space Systems

Lewis describes himself as a “Simcenter Femap champion,” spreading the word about the advantages of Simcenter Femap among his aerospace colleagues. “I tell them how easy it is to use, and easy-to-learn,” he says. “That Simcenter Femap is very powerful and intuitive software.”

Results

  • Complicated trade studies completed in two to three weeks
  • Improved accuracy through visualization and geometry manipulation tools that help confirm the FE model was properly created
  • Automation of routine tasks via scripts saves time and increases accuracy

Case Study

Simcenter virtualization tools deliver engineering services provider with competitive advantage for full-vehicle system integration

Applus IDIADA

“The benefits of Simcenter solutions are calculation flexibility, accuracy and consistency of results given the right input.”
"Simcenter is a tool that guides us through correct development assumptions, and then allows us to finetune or calibrate systems when they are ready."
- Guillem Badia, Project Manager, Powertrain Innovation Applus IDIADA

Results

  • Provided competitive advantage for full-vehicle integration
  • Gained efficiency assessing systems performance and predicting component interactions
  • Fully integrated HEV model, predicting energy and performance of all systems to be used as virtual development mules
