SYNCHRONIZED PHYSICAL AND ANALYTICAL FLOW SYSTEM MODELS

摘要

Methods and apparatus, including computer program products, for providing a physical computer aided design (CAD) model comprising a plurality of physical objects in a flow system. Each of the plurality of physical objects are joined at one or more physical linkages. An analytical model of the flow system is generated based on the one or more physical linkages. And one of the analytical model or the physical CAD model is automatically updated to reflect a change to the other.
