Required Inputs for Simulation

  1. 3D CAD design files.
  2. Material specifications.
  3. Environmental factors (temperature, airflow).
  4. Heater power and materials.
  5. Fan/pump properties (if applicable).
  6. Additional client-specific details.

Note: Any input changes require a new simulation run.

Simulation Time Estimates

  1. Setup: 0.5–2.5 hours (varies by complexity).
  2. Component Level:
    • Air coolers: 10–30 mins/run.
    • Liquid coolers: 1–3 hrs/run.
  3. System Level: 4 hours–1 day/run.
