                Simple Preparation<\/h3>\nUnlike conventional software tools, AKL FlowDesigner<\/span> does not require any complicated preparation for analysis.\nIt can easily import data from Rhinoceros or SketchUp and the air flow can be simulated intuitively.\nAKL FlowDesigner<\/span> is equipped with user-friendly data entry screen that allows intuitive and manualess data entry for desired air flow simulation.\n

                Easy to visualize<\/h3>\nAKL FlowDesigner<\/span> makes technology proposals come to life for clients. By creating a visually appealing simulation, it transforms an abstract concept into an appealing and understandable demonstration that clearly illustrates wind flow and temperature distribution in 3D.\n

                Fast and Robust<\/h3>\nWith conventional CFD software tools, even simple models require over 30 minutes to generate 3D air flow simulations. In contrast, AKL FlowDesigner<\/span> can import data and create a powerful simulation in only 5 minutes*1<\/sup>\nTraditional software tools also required a user to establish detailed parameters in order to converge analyzed data. AKL FlowDesigner<\/span> does away with this unnecessary and time-consuming process. Its highly robust solver lets designers perform 3D simulations quickly and easily.\n\n\n
