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

  • Easy to learn the basics. Intuitive, visually appealing interface (duct 4.0). Much much faster than manual estimating. Useful template reports. Easily customizable.
  • I really can't think of any. The product is pricey and does not function well. You're forced to put in 100 characters for Pro's. You don't need that many

Cons

  • Resource heavy (especially RAM). Server database (duct 4.0) can be laggy. Dated interface (pipe).
  • Many, we have not won a job of any size since we purchased the product over a year ago. Support tells us we can't adjust labor multipliers on back sheet per material group ie: copper , CPVC, PVC etc. Includes many items not used or needed making #'s noncompetitive.
