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
Commercialization• C&R's numerous clients span such diverse industries as
electronics packing, aerospace, automobile and aircraft engine cooling, air conditioning, fuel lubrication and hydraulic systems, spacecraft and l0aunch vehicle thermal control, propulsion, and environmental control, Power generation systems, Oil and gas pipeline and distribution systems, Process design and control, Furnaces and kilns.
• The firm has existing relationships with the corporations listed below:
Ford, Raytheon, Boeing, NASA, Chrysler , Northrop, Gruman, Aerospatiale, DoE Laboratories, Cummins, Allied Signal, Kawasaki, U.S. Air Force,Lockheed Martin, Mitsubishi, Toshiba, U.S. Navy, General Motors, Westinghouse, Alenia Aerospazio, U.S. Army.
Government/Science Applications • The NASA standard tool for thermohydraulic analysis, SINDA/FLUINT, includes thermodynamic and hydrodynamic solutions specifically targeted at the growing demand for design and analysis of liquid propulsion systems.
• Spacecraft and launch vehicle thermal, Propulsion, and environmental control design.
