CFdesign 2010 fully integrated for Revit
Published 1:00 am, Thu 10 Dec 2009
Software allows architecture and MEP engineers for the first time to run CFD studies from the Revit environment.
Previously, traditional CFD software has presented too many technical and time consuming barriers to be used by engineers at AEC firms.
With CFdesign architecture and MEP engineers can both validate and explore their Revit models for thermal comfort, energy audits, solar loading, smoke egress/ LMA, occupancy safety, and external wind loading.
In addition, CFdesign allows you to perform simulations for data center cooling and clean room design.
“The CFdesign and Autodesk Revit integration opens new doors for AEC firms. Never before have architecture and MEP engineers been so empowered to look at multi-scenario comprehensive fluid flow and heat transfer studies that seamlessly integrate with the Revit environment,” explains Derrek Cooper, product manager, Blue Ridge Numerics.
“CFdesign 2010 enables engineers to quickly create and compare different models and make important design decisions early in the development process. AEC firms now have the ability to offer their customers more effective design options with greater efficiency and with less risk.”
