We were honored to have Robert Warren from GoEngineer present at the 2026 SIMULIA Americas Users Conference in Novi, Michigan, May 13-14, 2026.

Abstract: 

In this session, we will explore the application of multispecies fluid dynamics to the design of an engine coolant reservoir. The model and methodology were developed for a GoEngineer customer to support informed decision making for a complex CFD challenge.

Using multiple Computational Fluid Dynamics tools—3DEXPERIENCE Fluid Dynamics Engineer and SOLIDWORKS Flow Simulation—we will compare model setup approaches, solver capabilities, and solution performance. A detailed comparison of solve times leveraging High Performance Computing (HPC) and Cloud Solve resources will be presented.

Finally, we will interrogate and compare results from both platforms, discussing the strengths, limitations, and ideal use cases of each solution to help attendees better understand how to select the right CFD approach for advanced engineering problems.
