Thermal Analysis
This White Paper discusses how design verification tools like SolidWorks Simulation can help you solve problems with Thermal analysis. Thermal analysis can be executed to find temperature distribution, gradient, and heal flowing in a mocel, as well as heat exchanged between the model and its environment.
In this white paper we define and then outline the concept of thermal analysis as it relates to product design. We discuss the principles of conduction, convection, and radiation using real-life products as examples. We will also describe ways to perform thermal analysis, specifically how you can use design validation software to simulate thermal conditions. We will also list the desired capabilities in thermal design validation software and demonstrate through examples how you can solve design challenges using SolidWorks products.
