About

FloCAD® is a fluid dynamics software add-on module for Thermal Desktop®, together they provide a complete thermohydraulic software tool for fully integrated fluid flow and heat transfer analysis. With FloCAD, the mechanics of building fluid flow models is very similar to that of building thermal models, with many of the commands applicable to both types of models. FloCAD models can be free-form (non-geometric), sketchpad style flow network modeling for abstraction and simplification, or they can be geometry-based by including objects such as pipe centerlines and cross-sections, complexly shaped vessels, or convection to finite difference of finite element representations of thermal structures. As a generalized pipe flow software tool, FloCAD captures the pressure drops in a piping network due to bends, valves, tees, changes in flow area, etc.

Pros & Cons from Real Users

Pros

  • I like that it can make a 3d model of pipes. (But it is just the building drain to a few fixtures - locked connections means you cannot select DWV fittings that comply with county code. You can't add vents, you can't make an entire project. There is no help, no customer service.

Cons

  • No help, no service. The software is incomplete - like a high school project. It doesn't work. I spent 2 months - paying in full and never got help from the company. I'm a builder - plumber and used to be a computer consultant for the building industry. This software doesn't work and is a waste of time. It takes weeks to learn it because there's no tool-tips. So you have to experiment with every function, even combining your click on menu order - changes functions, but because it's undocumented, there's no way to know how to use this software. The instructions in help are just 1 sentence descriptions about what it is supposed to be able to do - like a sales brochure. Waited for 8 months for a response from the developer - still nothing. So I purchased $2,400 worth of pipes and fittings to dryfit a 30x30 single story house with 2 bathrooms. Hoped I could use this software, but the cut and material lists were totally inaccurate. Simply put - don't waste your time. It can't deliver what they claim.
