Littleton, Colorado

• Innovation
• The Thermal Desktop enables concurrent
  engineering for thermal analysts
• by providing full access to CAD-based
  geometry as well as data exchange to
• and from structural codes without
  compromising traditional thermal
• modeling practices.

• Accomplishments
• Performs rapid model changes and what-if
  scenarios using material
• property aliases.
• Applies heaters, loads, or fluxes to nodes,
  elements, and conic surfaces.
• Provides graphical construction of procedural
  thermal entities such heat
• pipes, heaters, and thermostats.
• Extensive CAD functions make model building
  fast and more effective
• Boolean resolved, extended surfaces
• Super imposable drawing layers
• Multiple port views with store/recall
• Snap-on model building
• Drag and Drop model editing
• User-defined light sources
• Wire frame, hidden, rendered views

Thermal Desktop
