When activating the fire and smoke wizard, you specify a fire region, where you have a fire burning. You can then convert the 3D-CAD models to geometry parts for integration with the meshing and simulation process in Simcenter STAR-CCM+. The import process reads these files and builds the circuit board in 3D-CAD. IDF files contain design information about circuit boards and electronic components and are widely used in the electronics cooling industry. The IDF Import Wizard imports IDF (Intermediate Data Format) files into the 3D-CAD modeler in Simcenter STAR-CCM+. The Simcenter STAR-CCM+ SPEED Motor Tool Import Wizard lets you import SPEED electrical machine data into Simcenter STAR-CCM+ for further analysis, such as calculating 3D magnetic fluxes within the electrical machine. It provides a wide array of machine design options, including a material database and analysis programs to evaluate machine performance. While The “fire and smoke” wizard together with the “thermal comfort” wizard provide a workflow for a specific set of problems, the other two provides rather an import-utility to load data from other programs into Simcenter STAR-CCM+.įor instance, SPEED is a software package that Siemens Digital Industries Software provides to use in the design and analysis of electrical machines. These wizards can be accessed under window à Toolbars and either ticked in or selected under the customize option. Was covered a few weeks back in a separate blog post. Is included in the basic license but requires separate installation and comes with its own documentation. A wizard used to perform calculations on ship hulls. Simcenter SPEED motor tool import wizard.(except the electronics cooling toolset) Wizards STAR-CCM+ addon The wizards are free tools that can be activated in your GUI, while the add-ons are functionality that require their own license. Yet, we carefully must distinguish between Wizards and add-ons. In this week’s blog post we will start looking at some of the features that can be used within Simcenter STAR-CCM+.
