More engineering, less arithmetic.
AutoTherm is a fundamental toolset for the standard thermofluid calculations that come up across engineering work, in any industry. It handles the lookups, iterations and unit conversions, so your hours go to design.
It handles the parts that don't need judgment. You keep the parts that do.
You already know the engineering. What slows you down is the mechanical work around it: flipping through property tables, interpolating, converting units and iterating by hand. AutoTherm does that part correctly every time, and leaves the decisions with you.
- Property lookups from thermodynamic and material tables
- Interpolation between table values
- Unit conversions, in and out
- Balancing combustion reactions
- Tedious iterations, such as the adiabatic flame temperature
- Choosing the method that applies
- Setting up the problem and its assumptions
- Judging whether the result makes sense
- Deciding what to do with it
The same fundamentals, across every field.
AutoTherm isn't tied to one industry. It covers the heat transfer, fluid mechanics and thermodynamics calculations that show up everywhere. A few examples, each with a worked walkthrough:
Aircraft thermal management
Natural and forced convection, heaters and heat exchangers. This example: natural convection from a heater on a military aircraft fuel tank.
