CFdesign for Solid Edge

It seems every CFD tool on the market today is making the claim that they are integrated with your CAD system. Others try to pitch superiority based on embedding their CFD programs inside the CAD environment. Beyond simply making another claim, we want to provide you with an understanding of how Solid Edge and CFdesign integrate together to provide design engineers with a proven CAD-Driven simulation tool for conducting multi-scenario design studies.

CFdesign became a certified Solid Edge software partner in 2003. Based on market demand, we pioneered functionality to allow Solid Edge models to be read directly into CFdesign, as we do with all major CAD tools. Today our Solid Edge customers can instantly begin a fluid flow or heat transfer design study without having to export or overly simplify their geometry, making the process seamless. The proof that we have a solution that will work for you is evident by the companies using CFdesign for Solid Edge and seeing the process firsthand.
