Description:
Designed for users who would like to become productive faster,
this introductory course offers hands-on training on the use of
SolidWorks Flow Simulation.
Duration:
2 Days
Prerequisites:
SolidWorks Fundamentals is
highly recommended but not required. Knowledge of SolidWorks and
the basics of the MotionManager is required.

- Meshing principles
- Monitoring convergence
Running
- Meshing concerns
- Modeling concerns
- Applying boundary conditions
- Post-processing (vectors, contours, iso-lines, particle
tracking)
- Global data (mass/energy balance, bulk values, et cetera)
- Analysis Types
