flixo professional is a tool to analyze the thermal properties of a design or construction, and to document those results. Two main tools comprise flixo: a CAD workspace and entry tool, and a document generation tool. Flixo calculates and gives an overview of temperatures and heat flux densities; it shows temperatures in specific places along with other global thermal properties.

 

 

 

flixo professional was developed by Infomind ltd, Zurich

The most important features of flixo professional :

Very user friendly, many input aids and wizard to reduce data input time
Complete integration with Windows2000, WindowsXP and Windows Vista
Graphical arrangement of the calculated results on a report page.
Easy import of files from 3rd party CAD programs--DXF and SVG files supported.
Results can be exported into a graphic format as SVG-files, or be exported into other programs via Drag & Drop or the clipboard
Free forms
A materials database with more than 1000 materials from different European standards--EN ISO 12524, EN ISO 10077-2, EN ISO 673, EN ISO 6946
Library with numerous components (like window, walls, floors etc.) for fast creation of constructions using parametric components.
Tools and assistants for automatic calculation of temperatures, thermal currents, and component property values like U-values, Y-values, frame U-values
Calculation with the finite element method
Automatic mesh generation and mesh refinement at critical points
Number of temperature nodes is unlimited, and is only restricted by the hardware employed.
Calculation of thermal conductivities for air cavities, automatic filling of not fully enclosed cavities, automatic placement of special boundary, and automatic subdivision of air cavities according to EN ISO 10077-2
