SRAC Introduces COSMOS/FloWorks

SRAC to offer sophisticated, easy-to-use fluid flow analysis that is fully integrated with SolidWorks(r) 3D design software

Los Angeles, CA, May 1, 2002 - Structural Research & Analysis Corp. (SRAC), developer of COSMOS/Works, the best selling design analysis program for SolidWorks users, today introduced COSMOS/FloWorks, a computational fluid dynamics software powered by NIKA's popular flow simulation technology.

The only fluid dynamics program that is fully embedded within the SolidWorks user environment, COSMOS/FloWorks provides design engineers with a fundamental analysis of the flow of gases and liquids, heat transfer, and other forces on immersed or surrounding solids. The same qualities that make SolidWorks the industry's leading mid-range CAD system for the design of engines, valves, hydraulics, piping, pumps, HVAC, and other complicated assemblies make COSMOS/FloWorks the perfect tool for analyzing them.

COSMOS/FloWorks ignores the traditional practice of handing off fluid analysis to specialists by translating problems into engineering analysis goals rather than numerical convergence criteria and solver parameters. Leaving the SolidWorks geometry as a solid model, COSMOS/FloWorks empowers engineers who are not analysis experts to succeed in today's design environment.

"At SRAC, our goal is to provide designers with easy-to-use simulation tools that allow them to experience the benefits of analysis at all stages of the design cycle," said Barbara Guerra, President and CEO of SRAC. "We feel that COSMOS/FloWorks perfectly complements this vision and will be a useful addition to every SolidWorks designer's desktop."

"Our technology has generated a great deal of interest and commercial success since it was released three years ago," said NIKA CEO Roland Feldhinkel. "We are excited about the prospect of working with SRAC to introduce COSMOS/FloWorks to those engineers who wish to perform flow simulation but are not necessarily experts in the field of computational fluid dynamics."

About NIKA 

Privately held with world headquarters in Germany and regional operations in San Francisco and Paris, NIKA is redefining how engineers conduct fluid flow simulation and analysis. Founded in 1999, the company develops a new breed of fluid simulation software that is designed specifically for the design engineer, allowing users to immediately create designs and analyze them without having to transfer the data to the analysis code. NIKA counts blue chip companies such as TRW Automotive, Intel, NASA Ames, Lufthansa, Sandia National Labs, Teledyne Baker Hughes, Purolator-Facet, Delphi Automotive, Ametek Aerospace, Siemens, Panasonic, Swagelok and Neumag among its clients.
