About Mentor Graphics FloEFD. FloEFD is a full-featured 3D computational fluid dynamics analysis solution built into major MCAD systems such as Creo, CATIA V5, Siemens NX, Solid Edge and SolidWorks. It tightly integrates with Inventor.

As an award-winning frontloading CFD solution, FloEFD enables users to move CFD simulation early into the design process where it can help engineers examine trends and dismiss less desirable design options. Fast to learn and easy to use, FloEFD eliminates the workflow complexity and meshing overheads of old-school CFD software.

- FloEFD Standalone
FloEFD is the fastest and most efficient computational fluid dynamics analysis tool that is tightly integrated with all major CAD workflows including Inventor and SolidEdge. It enables engineers to directly work on their CAD model for preparing and evaluating their concurrent CFD simulation. In addition, the unique 1D-3D CFD coupling with FloMASTER is an industry first, providing a tight coupling of 1D and 3D software technologies engineered to work natively together with integrated source code.
- FloEFD for PTC Creo
FloEFD for PTC Creo is the most popular computational fluid dynamics (CFD) analysis tool that is truly embedded into Pro/ENGINEER and Creo. It enables design engineers to frontload CFD by moving simulation early into the design process where it is more cost effective to identify and fix problems and enhance productivity by x2 to x40.
- FloEFD for CATIA V5
FloEFD for CATIA V5 is the only computational fluid dynamics (CFD) analysis tool that is truly embedded into CATIA V5. It enables design engineers to frontload CFD by moving simulation early into the design process where it is more cost effective to identify and fix problems and enhance productivity by x2 to x40.
- FloEFD for Solid Edge
FloEFD for Solid Edge is the only powerful computational fluid dynamics (CFD) analysis tool that is fully embedded into Solid Edge. It enables design engineers to frontload CFD by moving simulation early into the design process where it is more cost effective to identify and fix problems and enhance productivity by x2 to x40.
- FloEFD for Siemens NX
FloEFD for Siemens NX is a powerful computational fluid dynamics (CFD) analysis tool that is embedded into Siemens NX. It enables design engineers to frontload CFD by moving simulation early into the design process where it is more cost effective to identify and fix problems and enhance productivity by x2 to x40.
