Thermal analysis has become increasingly important as designers push for higher performance, and competition squeezes safety margins. This means that a good understanding of temperature distribution and thermal loads can often be vital.

As experienced development engineers, our project involvement rarely stops at the analysis output.  We routinely work alongside our clients to find design solutions that are realistic and offer genuine commercial benefits.

The thermal analysis capabilities available from TriVista are comprehensive.  Surface-to-surface contact simulation enables complete assemblies to be modelled.  As long-term users of both FEA and CFD we are able to apply both types of analysis simultaneously to evaluate complex thermo-fluid systems.

Our thermal predictions are reliable and cost-effective, and provide many benefits:

• Reduce development costs
• Avoid expensive design changes
• Eliminate problems due to thermally induced stress and/or deformation using coupled field analysis 
• Optimise material choices
• Optimisation of cooling and insulation

The definition of thermal boundary conditions is often not straightforward and has a significant impact on the analysis accuracy. At TriVista we are able to use our extensive experience, of both modelling and testing, to validate the analysis.
