Check out this video on Creo Flow Analysis (Creo 9) Tips and Techniques session from PTC Application Engineers. Also this video Introduces Electromagnetic Simulation.
Presenters: Lino Tozzi (Solution Consulting, Fellow), Tom Quaglia (Solution Sales), Rich Moore & Alec Jiang (Simerics)
WEBCAST Q&A
Question from Anonymous: Is the Wizard only available in Creo 9?
Answer : The wizard was productized in Creo 6 but Simerics has backported it in to Creo 4.0 if you are not on 6.0. It exists OOTB in Creo 6-9.

Question from Dan: I see a second object that looks like a heatsink ,and the controller being checked right now might affect temperature of that other object. Can we have two heat sources and obtain max temperature for both objects at the same time?
Answer: Yes, you can show multiple graphs at the same time.
WEBCAST Q&A
Question from Hugo: Can we use the copy surfaces method when the geometry is not a solid? For example, when we import geometries from other software, the geometry is kind of corrupted.
Answer: We can do a workshop with you on just Fluid Volume creation if you would like, There are many different approaches.
Question from Hugo: Sheetmetal products require to have gaps to be manufactured, and the larger the product, the more gaps (corners, assembly...). Closing those gaps is very time demanding, if Creo Flow requires watertight models, that will make it very difficult to reach. Do you have another strategy or tool to handle that?
Answer: Build the 3D volume by extruding and then extract the internal 3D components from it.
Question from Hugo: Could you show the mesh please?
Answer: Lino showed the Binary tree mesh - similar to a cartesean cut cell mesh but more efficient.
Question from Hugo: How do you control the mesh near the wall?
Answer: Cell Size on Surfaces setting.

Question from Stephen: What if the assembly is "supposed" to have holes there? How do these techniques work with this? Do I need to find these holes and set them as boundaries?
Answer: There is an "all volumes" approach that could be used.
