ThermoAnalytics, Inc. has released 1.1.0 version of CoTherm, is an ambassador that facilitates the flow of information between CAE simulation products.

It is the solution to complicated scripting and allows you to set up a customizable workflow from a user-friendly interface. At this release stage CoTherm currently couples with TAITherm, Star-CCM+, and Fluent but also has the capability to be extended using the API.

- Coupling with Fluent
Couple with Fluent to execute a fluid flow simulation within a process. Surface temperatures can be mapped onto Fluent boundaries and a simulation can be run to export convective heat transfer coefficients and fluid temperatures.
- Coupling with Star-CCM+
Specify a Star-CCM+ tool to execute a fluid flow simulation within a process. Surface temperatures can be mapped onto Star-CCM+ boundaries and a simulation can be run to export convective heat transfer coefficients and fluid temperatures.
- Coupling with TAITherm
CoTherm was made to couple with TAITherm. Together, these programs allow you to execute a thermal analysis within a process. Specify part faces, assemblies and CFD model boundaries within a TAITherm model. Setup a task to import heat transfer coefficients and fluid temperatures. Tasks can also be created to export thermal results from TAITherm into an EnSight case file.
