I am trying to parameterize a simulation in which a heat source dissipates heat through a plate. The power level (for the solver), plate thickness and area (for the geometry), AND grid (discretization pre-solver) layer will vary. The latter may be the limiting factor. Does the MathCAD play well with SolidWorks analysis?

showed example of relax and mutligrid transferring heat on a grid.
Attached a pdf showing heat convection thru multi layered walls from Building Thermal Analysis handbook
Mathcad talks to the Object Model in Solidworks bidirectional. Mathcad can work in pre and post FEA analysis or
be the analysis engine.
