1. I am using SW Flow Simulation 2016 to investigate heat sink performance and want to create cut plots with the custom parameters Bottleneck number and Shortcut number. My problem is that I cannot find the two parameters in the list as indicated below. I tried to create them as custom parameters in the Engineering Data Base but was not successful in finding the right parameters to use in a function.

Anybody to help me out here?

Thanks in advance!

Carel.

The list below was found in an article about new features on SW Flow Simulation 2016.

    Hi Seckin,
    Yes, I do have the Electronics Cooling Module.

        Many thanks, I will activate those two options, re-run and check if the parameters are available.
        Will report back.
        Carel.

        I could only see the Local Mean Age (LMA) option under Calculation Control Options and not any Comfort Parameters to check. I do not have the HVAC module that maybe provides for the Comfort Parameter checkbox?
        Ran the simulation again but still could not see the Bottleneck and Shortcut Parameters to use in a cut plot.
        I have an external flow study with a power source on a simple heat sink with forced convection:

        I have found an SPR about it. Please contact with your var.
        
        SPR 1027180 *Missing the definition of two parameters (Bottleneck and shortcut numbers) from the Parameter list*
