midas NFX 201Product Overview

Total analysis solution for truemidas NFX 2014 offers multi-disciplinary analysis features, which cover structural analysis, CFD analysis and topology optimization.

For structural analysis, midas NFX provides total solution to general analysis types as linear, modal and heat transfer analysis, as well as advanced analysis features such as contact, nonlinear and explicit dynamic analysis.

CFD analysis allows comprehensive and accurate simulations of heat transfer and fluid flows associated with the specialized functions such as moving mesh and free surface. Structural analysis can be coupled with advanced CFD simulations.

CAD Import I Geometry Modeling

Although NFX support import from12 types of CAD files, a build- in geometry modeling environment based on Parasolid Kernel is provided. By using the modeling tools (2D/3D, boolean, extrusion, revolve, loft, sweep, translation...) , simplification tools, measurement and reparation tools, you can prepare your geometry model based on CAD files or create the model directly in NFX.
