Blue Ridge Numerics Presents Webinars on Digital Prototyping in a Flow and Thermal World

CHARLOTTESVILLE, V - Blue Ridge Numerics, Inc today announced that it will be offering two live Webinars on Digital Prototyping in a Flow and Thermal World. The first Webinar will be on Wednesday, April 28, 2010, at 11:00 a.m. ET and cover the importance of flow and thermal simulations from within the CAD environment, presented by Luke Mihelcic, Product Marketing Manager, CFdesign. Luke will be joined by our special guest presenter Mark Owens, Mechanical Engineering Manager, Industrial Scientific Corporation. The second event will be on Thursday, April 29, at 12:00 noon ET and will cover the importance of thermal simulations from within the CAD environment with focus on the LED lighting industry. This Webinar will be presented by Ryan Abel, Lighting Application Engineer, CFdesign.

The presenters will discuss:

* Managing design studies from within the CAD environment using the CFdesign Design Study Manager
* Performing multi-scenario design studies in the CFdesign Design Study Environment
* Comparatively reviewing critical values in the CFdesign Design Center
* The process of simultaneously assessing performance of multiple designs in the CFdesign Design Review Center

Using CFdesign engineers are able to make insightful design decisions based on fluid flow and heat transfer simulations while continuing to work in their CAD environment. The simulations begin from within the CAD package using the design study manager, and the native model along with its associative information is opened within the CFdesign design study environment. The unique multi-scenario design study environment in CFdesign 2010 allows engineers to view multiple designs at one time and visually compare the different results. CFdesign enables engineers to obtain accurate simulation results early in the development process where the value of true upfront computational fluid dynamic (CFD) software is greatest.
