- It enables our designers to evaluate the temperature and heat performance of a design using sensitivity studies - not hardware prototypes. Examining the "what-if" factors using thermal simulation can save up to three months of trial and error.
- These heat loads and convective conditions can be directly applied to the design and can be graphically previewd for definition verification.
- We can specify temperature settings before running a simulation and review graphs of the results at each pass to visually inspect the cooling behavior.
- We can identify local sensitivity and visualize whether varying a certain parameter has a significant effect.
- We optimize designs by specifying multiple design parameters and a design goal in terms of cost, temperature heat flux, temperature gradients, or any other aspect of the design.
- Thermal simulation my minimize the number of fans, thereby lowering cost, noise, and failure rate.
