Before starting a simulation, selected failure configurations can be chosen. Components’ defects can be readily aggregated with a special dialogue to an failure configuration.
For different components, there are failure models available that depict typical defects. It is constantly improved and enriched with new components.įluidSIM offers a novel diagnosis concept.
You build your circuit diagram from a library of hundreds of pneumatic, hydraulic and electronic components. FluidSIM immediately reacts to such events and simulates seamlessly the altered system. Also, signals from connected hardware or via an interface from other programs can be transferred. Moreover, the user can interactively operate and activate switches or change-over valves. Not only state changes and component switches, which result from the system, are calculated. With more than 200,000 installations worldwide since 1995 FluidSIM is one of the most successful software packages in the mechatronic training.įluidSIM allows both the convenient creation of circuits as well as their interactive simulation. As a result FluidSIM is perfect not only for use in lessons but also for the preparation thereof and as a self-study program.įluidSIM has already won several awards, among others with the Expert System Innovation Award at the expert system meeting XPS in Kaiserslautern, the international Worlddidac Award and the German educational software price. FluidSIM unites an intuitive circuit diagram editor with detailed descriptions of all components, component photos, sectional view animations and video sequences. All of the program functions interact smoothly, combining different media forms and sources of knowledge in an easily accessible fashion. FluidSIM 5 is a comprehensive software for the creation, simulation, instruction and study of electro-pneumatic, electro-hydraulic, digital and electronic circuits.
