The following components of ESATAN-TMS are applicable for thermo-hydraulic applications:
CADbench
CADbench provides the thermal engineer with an environment to view and modify the CAD geometry and generate the analysis model. When generating the thermal analysis model from CAD geometry it is common practice to simplify the geometry.
Fluids provide the capability to carry out the thermohydraulic analysis and simulation of a piped fluid network which may be connected to a standard ESATAN thermal model. The ability to provide a steady state and transient analysis is also available.
Radiative provides a powerful environment for modelling any type of application where radiation effects are considered important. It uses enhanced Monte-Carlo ray tracing algorithm with automatic accuracy in calculating view factors or full radiative exchange factors.
Thermal is the underpinning "engine" of ESATAN-TMS based on the lumped parameter formulation. It provides a built-in hierarchical sub-modelling facility as well as a library of subroutine to simplify the analysis of complex system.
ThermNV enables the visualisation, inspection and processing of thermal analysis networks, either for model validation or post-processing task such as heat flow inspections and charting.
ThermXL is an add-in for Microsoft Excel, for performing simple thermal analysis within a spreadsheet. It provides an intuitive, easy-to-use thermal modelling environment perfect for conceptual studies, "What if...?" type analysis, etc.
Workbench is an integrated environment with full pre- and post-processing capabilities, providing geometry modelling, visualisation, reporting and analysis case control. It introduces multiple ways of building the geometrical model.
