COSMOS™ Thermal analysis allows design engineers and analysis experts to perform heat transfer analysis of simple models or complex 3D assemblies. Thermal analysis allows engineers to study temperature changes encountered by mechanical parts and structures in their normal operating conditions, which influence a product's performance.

Integrated and simplified analysis..

Due to underlying integration of the design and analysis products, thermal analysis can be performed as an integral part of the design process. All analysis specifications are applied on geometry rather than a FEA mesh. In this way the program ensures associativity of analysis specification even as the design changes.

Features include:

• Analysis applicable for both parts and assemblies
• Shell Analysis
• Conduction, convection and radiation heat transfer analysis
• Steady state heat transfer
• Transient heat transfer with time varying boundary conditions
• Support of isotropic, orthotropic, and temperature-dependent material properties.
• Temperature dependent convection coefficient and heat generation rates
