Capabilities
| Rating (Performance Analysis) |
| Calculation of heat
flow rate
Calculation of temperature difference
Calculation of the thickness of a specified layer |
|
| Preliminary Design |
| Supports specified
temperature, film coefficient and radiation
conditions at one or the two external surfaces.
Supports fins at the surfaces.
Grouping into material types makes the analysis of
complicated systems very easy.
Up to 100 material types and 50 layers. |
