Parametric Studies: Sensitivity Analysis

The Parametric Studies module allows you to move beyond single-point calculations. Understand how your design reacts to varying input parameters and identify critical sensitivities instantly.

Automated Iterations

Instead of manually changing a value and re-calculating, you can define ranges for any input variable (e.g., tube diameter, mass flow, or inlet temperature). * Step-by-Step Analysis: Define a start value, end value, and the number of steps. * Multi-Variable Tracking: See how changing the wall thickness affects both the weight and the heat transfer coefficient simultaneously.

Visualizing Trends

The module generates high-quality 2D and 3D plots to visualize the relationships between parameters. * Identify Break Points: Spot exactly where a design becomes non-compliant with safety norms. * Optimization Trends: Find the local minimum for pressure drop or the maximum for thermal efficiency.

Efficiency Boost: Reduce days of manual "What-if" analysis into minutes of automated computation.
