Our Leadership in Rapid Flow Modeling
Rapid Flow Modeling (RFM) is an approach to flow simulation where well understood CFD analysis techniques are encapsulated into highly automated analysis tools that are aimed at reducing overall product lifecycle design time, improving designer efficiency and cutting costs by performing analysis in the early part of a product design process.

FloWizard: Rapid Flow Modeling for Design
![]() |
FloWizard leads in rapid flow modeling, a flexible approach to CFD simulation that allows for accurate and quick engineering design validation much earlier in the product development cycle.
Benefits of using FloWizard:
- Brings affordable CFD to an audience much wider than traditional CFD analysts
- Has expert guidance built into its user interface
- Upwardly compatible to the most widely used CFD code in the world, FLUENT 6
- Used collaboratively across your site and across your global organization via the Web
- Fully extensible with headroom for you to grow into more complex flow simulations over time
- Has Fluent's worldwide knowledgebase embedded within it (100's of years of applied CFD know-how)
- Genuinely easy-to-use software with wide CAD connectivity, and fully automated with a fast solver
- Can be run in parallel from anywhere in the world using Fluent's RSolve Service and Remote Simulation Facility (RSF)
FLUENT for CATIA: Rapid Flow Modeling for PLM
![]() |
FLUENT for CATIA was produced in collaboration with Dassault Systèmes in France and brings you the best of Product Lifecycle Management (PLM) and CFD analysis.
Product Lifecycle Management (PLM) benefits:
- One single workflow CATIA V5 PLM environment for CFD - low product learning curve for occasional users
- Fully generative in CATIA V5
- Fully integrated CFD into PLM for parametric modeling and knowledge-based engineering
- Fully automated CFD process – flow volume extraction, meshing, solution process and report generation
- Customizable to fit your proven workflow
- Can use the same CAD and mesher for other analysis simulations, e.g. FEA, thermal analysis
CFD analysis benefits:
- Can be used to assess design performance early in a product's design cycle and improve its performance throughout its lifecycle
- Reliable flow and thermal results from the leader in CFD
- Tap into 20 years of Fluent's CFD industry know-how
- Fully upward compatible with the FLUENT 6 general-purpose CFD tool
