SOLIDWORKS Thermal Stress from Beginning to End

In this webinar, we give an overview SOLIDWORKS tools you can use for your thermal stress analyses starting with a simple hand calculation and work our way up to a CFD + FEA one-way coupled study. We use SOLIDWORKS Simulation Standard (structural static), SOLIDWORKS Simulation Professional (convection presciption), and Flow Simulation (convection simulation) to calculate the bonding stresses on a simple chip model.
Presenters with combined 20 years of simulation experience:
Sam Oanes
Shaun Bentley

Very nicely done
Well explained

[@mantatrip9319]

this video is gold!

[@ancientmoon4303]

Excellent, clear, explain in detail. Like it very much. Recommend to watch it.

[@moscotic]

Thanks! Nice and clear tutorial! Could you please share part2 of this video?

[@goengineer]

Thanks for your patience... I'm not sure how I missed this comment. It's still on my list to edit and upload it, but fell down a bit on my priority list. In the meantime, was there any question on it I might be able to answer for you?

[@stehpen_exe]

could you explain or provide references for how you completed the hand calc? Specifically the stiff bonding stress calculation

[@PurushottamKumar013]

Is there any option to import study of one Flow Simulation into another Flow Simulation ?

[@goengineer]

Thank you for your question.
We do not show this in the webinar, but the place you will do this is located in the "Initial Conditions" step of the WIZARD or GENERAL SETTINGS. If you pause the video at 40:45, you will see the "initial conditions" dialog and where is says "Parameter Definition" is where you will change it to use another Flow Simulation.
