SolidWorks Flow Simulation Reviews & Product Details - Page 2

What do you like best about SolidWorks Flow Simulation?

Solidworks has a less steeper learning curve when compared to other softwares. It is easier to train people to use it. Offers a great deal of features which can be very useful for designing volumetric geometries. Also the inbuilt toolboxes offer components of multiple standards like DIN, ISO, US etc. However there are better alternatives available in the market when it comes to sheet metal design and blow moulding design.

What do you dislike about SolidWorks Flow Simulation?

Only disadvantage is that it does not have much options for sheet metal design. Also, solidworks has a relatively smaller share in certain industries which makes it difficult to migrate from one project to another. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you like best about SolidWorks Flow Simulation?

The very nice thing is that flow stimulation runs directly in the solidworks interface. Flow stimulation won't require you to setup your study from the scratch. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about SolidWorks Flow Simulation?

I thing that i dislike the most is that it cannot give results about combustion or any chemical equation. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you like best about SolidWorks Flow Simulation?

It is an application created to work the intuitive simulation of the dynamics of the computational fluid which allows the advantages of the CAD environment, the capabilities of the meshes gemetrica and the automatic determination of the flow regime without sacrificing the ease of use, efficiency and effectiveness of the software , it is important to note that it gives the ability to predict the behavior of flow fields and heat transfer processes, determining the pressure drops, temperature, comfort parameters and other interactions that the fluid may have with external agents , really comes close to reality before building the equipment.

What do you dislike about SolidWorks Flow Simulation?

Among the main disadvantages that can be observed which makes me disgust sometimes is that there is not much control of the meshes, this is because the elements are tetraetric, what can be controlled really is something of size and refined, if the mesh is not well refined the result may not be well interpreted causing confusion in the interpretation of the results.

The static module does not have the option to deliver gradual loading, although this option is in the non-linear modules. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you like best about SolidWorks Flow Simulation?

It is one of the software made to analyse fluid flow Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about SolidWorks Flow Simulation?

User experience needed to be improved little bit Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you like best about SolidWorks Flow Simulation?

This has to be one of the most Innovative software packages I have ever used. If you need to demonstrate liquid flow in any type of online example you need to use the software. I needed something to simulate chemical flow and I would have never guest it would be so easy. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about SolidWorks Flow Simulation?

The interface is a little overwhelming but once you get used to it it's fine. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you like best about SolidWorks Flow Simulation?

Solidworks has a simple CFD add-in for doing flow simulations. It is quick to learn and less complicated than many other CFD softwares. It is good for getting a general idea of fluids behavior before diving into a deeper simulation with another software so that you don't have to spent time preparing the model if it isn't headed in the right direction in the first place. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about SolidWorks Flow Simulation?

It can be difficult to get the software to accept a model geometry. It has trouble recognizing what areas in a model to use for computations if there are complex geometries, open areas, or cavities. It also gives errors without enough explanation as to problem areas in the models. It can be difficult to find where things need to be changed or what an error is really addressing. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you like best about SolidWorks Flow Simulation?

SOLIDWORKS® Flow Simulation is an intuitive Computational Fluid Dynamics (CFD) solution embedded within SOLIDWORKS 3D CAD that enables you to quickly and easily simulate liquid and gas flow through and around your designs to calculate product performance and capabilities. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about SolidWorks Flow Simulation?

I have faced a meshing problem in the flow simulation. It can be difficult to find where things need to be changed or what an error is really addressing. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you like best about SolidWorks Flow Simulation?

I like the accessibility of the tools along with that we can simulate liquid and gas flow of the part so we can judge the performance of the part. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about SolidWorks Flow Simulation?

There is nothing to dislike in this Solidworks flow simulation software. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you like best about SolidWorks Flow Simulation?

This software provides accurate and precise flow of gas and liquid. Using this we can compute the forces, pressure and stresses exerted on the body by the flow. Its user interface is simple and easy to use. The best part is the flow around the 3-D model is just like the real motion. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about SolidWorks Flow Simulation?

The price is a bit high. It should be a little bit cheaper inorder to acquire more users. Also sometimes results are unrealistic and contains error. Also simulation takes long time to complete. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you like best about SolidWorks Flow Simulation?

The user interface is very easy to use. Anyone can learn to use it with the help of inbuilt tutorials in the software. Visualization is also very appealing Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about SolidWorks Flow Simulation?

The results are not very accurate compared to other CAE packages like ANSYS Fluent. Meshing is also not very good. The results from Solidworks flow can be used as a first estimate for any design. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
