The colors represent changes in velocity along the trajectories. Flow Animation with SOLIDWORKS FloXpress uses Trajectories to display results as flow streamlines.This functionality helps you to get better engineering insight into your designs. You simply tell the program what fluid analysis you are interested in and it will calculate these goals and present to the user after the completion of the analysis. Engineering goal based analysis. SOLIDWORKS Flow Simulation is a goal based CFD analysis program.Wizard mode for analysis setup. SOLIDWORKS FloXpress uses a wizard interface to setup the analysis thereby making it easy and intuitive to solve the problem.There is no need to modify your SOLIDWORKS designs for fluid flow analysis. Complete Integration with SOLIDWORKS. SOLIDWORKS FloXpress is fully embedded within the SOLIDWORKS Windows®-native environment.For more complex fluid analysis upgrade to SOLIDWORKS Flow Simulation.įeatures and Benefits of SOLIDWORKS FloXpress Unlike the full version, SOLIDWORKS Flow Simulation, SOLIDWORKS FloXpress is specifically designed to analyze fluid flow in a fully enclosed volume that includes at least one inlet and one outlet.

Based on the calculated velocity field, you can find problem areas in your design and improve them before you manufacture any parts. SOLIDWORKS FloXpress is a fluid dynamics add-in application included with SOLIDWORKS, that calculates how fluid flows through assembly models.

If you don't have a Flow Simulation license (it isn't bundled with any other SOLIDWORKS or Simulation licenses) you would need to buy a license.SOLIDWORKS FloXpress is fluid flow simulation software included with SOLIDWORKS.

If you have a Flow Simulation license you would need to modify your installation to include the add-in like this: If that button is grayed out it would usually indicate that the Flow Simulation add-in is not installed onto your machine.
