Plastics Lesson 1: SOLIDWORKS and the 3DEXPERIENCE Plastic Injection App

Plastics Lesson 1: SOLIDWORKS and the 3DEXPERIENCE Plastic Injection App

In this lesson, simulate the injection molding of the SOLIDWORKS part, Switch Plate made from a single material using the Plastic Injection App on the 3DEXPERIENCE platform. From SOLIDWORKS, save the part to the platform, introduce PLM concepts of Lock and Revision. From the SOLIDWORKS Task Pane, us the Plastics Injection App to define the Finite Element Model, material, domain and fill rate. Review the simulations, Fill, Pack + Cool, and Warp. Use animation of the Warp simulation to show the displacement contour plot.

CFD Lesson 7: SOLIDWORKS Enclosure and 3DEXPERIENCE Fluid Scenario Creation

In this SOLIDWORKS assembly save your model to the 3DEXPERIENCE platform and manage your data with PLM attributes. Define two physics conditions to investigate internal turbulent air flow from a fan and thermal effects from a Heat sink and a chip. Use different mesh types and materials to explore capacity, simulation run time, and accuracy. Display and review the Gauge Pressure, Velocity and Temperature contour plot. Examine the temperature at different points throughout the chip, Heat sink and enclosure using a XY Plot from Path.
