Graphical User Interface for SINDA/FLUINT

Sinaps® is a graphical user interface for developing SINDA/FLUINT models and for viewing and reporting the results. Sinaps® provides a 2D sketch environment for thermal and flow modeling analysis allowing abstraction and simplification of complex systems.

Sinaps® allows the user to work with a SINDA/FLUINT model visually, reducing the learning curve and speeding the model building process. Because it is a complete pre and post-processor, it facilitates the reporting of results and the sharing of models between engineers. Thermal and fluid networks are sketched on the screen using pop-up menus and fill-in forms to quickly build and maintain complex models. Models can be validated, SINDA/FLUINT runs can be launched, and results can be displayed directly on your sketch via coloring and other postprocessing operations, all without leaving the Sinaps® environment.

The Case Manager in Sinaps® supports system modeling by streamlining the creation and management of multiple design cases for a master model. The Case Manager provides direct access to control parameters for convergence criteria along with various solution options, case-specific user-definable logic blocks, and post processing options.

Summary of Key Features
  • Read in existing SINDA/FLUINT input files
  • Import older SinapsPlus® XML files; requires installation of SinapsPlus export patch
  • User-defined registers and expressions facilitate design changes and parametric analyses
  • Case Manager: provides multi-case data management
    • directly launches SINDA/FLUINT
    • post-processing
    • provides access to SINDA/FLUINT logic blocks
  • Model Browser provides easy navigation for network object location and editing.
  • Use advanced tools to organize and maintain large, complicated diagrams including:
    • multiple copies of any node or lump ("clones")
    • super-imposable drawing layers
    • temporarily collapsed subnetworks ("collections")
  • Thermophysical property database manager supports temperature-dependent properties
    • Compatible with Thermal Desktop to allow database sharing
  • Built in model checking tools
  • Easy-to-use tool bars and object edit forms facilitate model building
  • Color/shade nodes and lumps and thicken connections (conductors, ties, etc.) to visualize flow rates, temperatures, pressures, heat flows, pressure drops, vapor/gas qualities, etc.
  • Post processing tools such as customizable meters and gauges
  • Create X-Y plots and apply extensive customizations, including:
    • legend, title, labels, colors
    • compare results of multiple runs
    • rescale axes and apply unit conversions
    • add user lines generated by algebraic manipulations of other data series
  • Print or export plots and network diagrams for report generation
  • Use color-coded forms to distinguish common from advanced options
  • Export a traditional input file to transfer to other SINDA/FLUINT users
  • Convenient user comment fields provide model documentation
