    Autodesk Simulation CFD works with Inventor Fusion, letting engineers perform CFD simulations while working in CAD.
    Autodesk Simulation CFD is the company's latest simulation software. It builds on computational fluid dynamics capabilities gained through the recent acquisition of Blue Ridge Numerics. Autodesk Simulation CFD helps automate fluid flow and thermal simulation decision-making, thus eliminating cycles of costly physical prototyping. The CFD software works with Autodesk Inventor Fusion, letting engineers modify or simplify geometry when running simulations from CAD.
