Siemens Simcenter FloTHERM XT 2310.0

The Mentor, a Siemens business , is pleased to announce the availability of Simcenter Flotherm XT 2310 - CAD Centric electronics cooling software and sister product to Simcenter Flotherm. For thermal designers, working in Simcenter Flotherm XT’s CAD-centric interface, there are a variety of enhancements to help with PCB thermal modeling.

Simcenter Flotherm XT 2310 – What’s new
Below is a summary of the new features in Simcenter Flotherm XT, CAD centric electronics cooling software, that is part of the Simcenter Flotherm Flexx tool product family.

Model the complexity and stay integrated

Export Package Creator thermal models straight to Simcenter Flotherm
What is Simcenter Flotherm Package Creator? If you are not already using it – Simcenter Flotherm Package Creator helps engineers easily create accurate detailed, 3D CAD based, electronics chip package thermal models in minutes for direct use in PCB & system level electronics cooling simulation. Previously, users were able to export from Package Creator in XTXML format to Simcenter Flotherm MCAD bridge. You can now export 3D geometry based detailed thermal model information from Package Creator to Simcenter Flotherm using the FLOXML export type.


Export your entire project in the XTXML format
To aid inter-tool transport within Siemens Simcenter tools you can now export your project in XTXML format. You can export :
- an entire project with geometry and model setup data
- a project from a parametric study for a single or all scenarios


Go faster and stay integrated

Use scripting for efficient, consistent workflows
There is now functionality to automate certain workflows that you would perform in the main window of Simcenter Flotherm XT. You can record a workflow and then playback with alternative designs using controls added to record and playback scripts. Scripts can be edited to create custom workflow alterations.


Enhanced Smart Part Fan Modeling calculation options
Fan and Flow Device using SmartParts is now more capable for free blowing pressure drop treatment for most situations. Options now include a Total Pressure based calculation and Static Pressure based calculation.


Smart Part Goal Setting


When assemblies with point goals based are saved in the library and reused in different projects, you can opt for global coordinates to be used or you can now set point goals based on the local coordinate system of the parent assembly. This means if you change the location of the assembly the point goal remains and also if you re-use it in a different project.

Simcenter Flotherm XT has been developed to facilitate electronics thermal design from concept to verification, with a consistent data model throughout and the seamless ability to import data from other mechanical design automation (MDA) or EDA sources as required in a particular design process. This design lifecycle support is inherent in FloTHERM XT’s design and infrastructure: using SmartParts to build a simple concept model in minutes; work with complex mechanical parts directly from MCAD; create your own CAD geometry easily and efficiently; and use detailed electronic assemblies from EDA
