MARLBOROUGH, MA - Flomerics
has reached its 20th anniversary as an independent company. According
to founder Dr. David Tatchell, the company has reached an age that puts
it among the oldest involved in computer aided engineering.
"Over
the past 20 years the market has clearly validated our approach of
embedding powerful simulation software into the heart of our customers'
design processes," said Dr Mike Reynell, Director of Marketing. "The
key is to make simulation software easy to use for the people with the
responsibility for developing innovative products and processes that
drive their own companies' success."
Company
founders David Tatchell and Harvey Rosten first worked together in the
1970s pioneering the commercial availability of CFD technologies, and
in 1988, founded the company to develop CFD software to simulate
thermal exchange for pre-prototype product development. Tatchell served
as CEO until his retirement in 2006.
Rosten led the development effort for the company's first products. He
passed away 1997.
The
company's first product, Flotherm, used in thermal design for
electronic systems, was launched in September 1989. The company's
second product, Flovent, used to optimize building heating, ventilation
and air conditioning systems was released in early 1990. In 1995 the
company went public, listing on the London Stock Exchange Alternative
Investment Market.
The
company acquired the Hungarian-based thermal test equipment company
MicReD in 2005, and the German-based company Nika GmbH in 2006.

Are you doing the same thing over and over again and expecting a different result?
ANSYS Inc. introduces Icepak 12.0 software, providing robust and powerful fluid dynamics technology for electronics thermal management.
The latest version contains several advancements, including technology for meshing complex geometry and physical modeling capabilities.
The software quickens product development by accurately simulating dissipation of thermal energy in electronic devices at the component, board or system level. Users can improve design performance, reduce the need for a physical prototype and shorten time to market.
ANSYS Iceboard and Icechip capabilities are integrated into this latest version, and ECAD designs can be directly imported. Additional features include enhanced fan modeling, parallel processing, post-processing and expanded libraries.
In addition, a PCB trace Joule heating modeling capability, together with the import of DC power distribution profiles from Ansoft SIwaveT software enhances accurate PCB thermal simulation.
