Case results

Introduction

Once a case is completed, the results are automatically pushed back to the platform, and an email notification is triggered.

The platform features built-in post-processing capabilities for result visualization. Selecting a finished case automatically opens the Case Summary tab, which provides an immediate overview of all relevant case data, including temperatures, system metrics, and notes.

In addition to the summary, five specific tabs are available for detailed analysis:

  1. Workflow: Displays a conceptual map tracking the workflow status, illustrating the connections from the initial baseline to the latest created case.
  2. Thermal Network: Presents the results as a 1D approximation of the model. This highlights the average temperatures of each physical entity, the amount of heat transferred between them, and the thermal resistance of those connections.
  3. Design Evolution: (Available only for optimization cases) Displays the multiple design iterations generated during an optimization run, illustrating how geometric changes directly impact thermal and fluid performance.
  4. Result: Visualizes key performance data through customizable tables, charts, or direct 3D model interaction.
  5. History: Provides a chronological log of all case activities, tracking specific user actions such as input modifications and result downloads.

For advanced or highly specialized post-processing requirements outside of the built-in tools, the complete results can be downloaded directly from the platform. The subsequent sections provide an in-depth overview of the specific data and formats available for download from ColdStream.
