Description

With Simcenter Thermal / Flow or ESC (Electronic System Cooling) tasks of fluid mechanics, complex thermal problems as well as coupled thermal / fluid tasks can be solved.

This enables one solver each for thermal and fluid mechanical calculations, which can be coupled with each other if necessary. In this seminar we deal with the methodology for the coupling between the fluid mechanical and thermal solver.
