Description

Patran offers an extensive array of tools designed to facilitate the development of models ready for analysis across various domains, including linear and nonlinear problems, explicit dynamics, thermal analysis, and more within finite element solutions. Its geometry cleanup features assist engineers in efficiently addressing issues like gaps and slivers present in CAD designs, while solid modeling capabilities allow users to construct models from the ground up. The software simplifies the mesh generation process on both surfaces and solids through a combination of fully automated meshing routines and manual techniques that afford users greater precision. Additionally, Patran includes built-in options for setting up loads, boundary conditions, and analyses compatible with leading finite element solvers, significantly reducing the need for adjusting input files. With its robust and industry-validated functionalities, Patran ensures that virtual prototyping is not only swift but also effective, enabling users to assess product performance against specific requirements and refine their designs accordingly. As a result, engineers can spend less time on setup and more on innovation and optimization.

Description

RadCAD employs an advanced, oct-tree accelerated Monte-Carlo ray tracing algorithm to calculate radiation exchange factors and view factors with remarkable speed. The enhancements introduced by C&R Technologies in the ray tracing methodology have led to the development of a highly efficient thermal radiation analysis tool. By utilizing finite difference "conics" or curved finite elements from TD Direct®, RadCAD is capable of precisely simulating diffuse and specular reflections as well as transmissive surfaces, independent of node density. The thermal solution's requirements govern the node quantity, rather than the precision needed for radiation calculations. Furthermore, RadCAD allows users to create custom databases that specify optical properties, with each surface coating detailing its absorptivity, transmissivity, reflectivity, and specularity in both solar and infrared wavelengths. These optical characteristics can be tailored to account for variations in incident angles or wavelength dependencies, enhancing the accuracy and relevance of thermal modeling. Ultimately, this level of customization ensures that RadCAD meets diverse analytical needs across various applications.
