Simcenter Flomaster는 20년이 넘는 세월동안 pipework network와 system의 1D 열유체 시뮬레이션을 위해 엔지니어들에게 선택되어 사용되었습니다.

Don Miller의 "Internal Flow Systems"를 기반으로 하는 Flomaster는 뛰어난 transient solver로 인해 정확성, 유연성 및 다양한 업계에서 사용가능한 점이 여러 엔지니어들의 선택을 받게 되었습니다.

Flomaster는 설계 프로세스의 초기 단계부터 신뢰할 수 있는 결과를 제공합니다.

Simcenter Flomaster 의 강점
