The Simcenter 3D Space Systems Thermal course provides students with comprehensive instruction in the use of Simcenter 3D Pre/Post to build spacecraft models, simulating orbital heating including solar and planet fluxes as well as conduction, radiation and convection within the model. Students will learn the skills necessary to build or modify geometry, create a finite element mesh, define orbits and articulation, and carry out sophisticated thermal analysis of spacecraft. The course covers both theoretical and practical aspects of how the software handles heat transfer and includes a variety of examples and tutorials addressing techniques for each step in the process.
