NASA JPL selects Intact to develop topology optimization of thermal control systems

Intact.Generative is a plug-and-play optimization toolkit built on Intact.Simulation component simulation platform, with funding from DARPA. This project will extend Intact.Generative into a robust commercial strength toolkit for topology optimization of thermal/fluid components in thermal control systems. A modularized plug-and-play framework for multiphysics will allow users customize the modules, add new physics, and account for the rapidly evolving manufacturing techniques in rapidly producing full validated generative designs. Numerous potential applications of the developed technology include heat sinks and exchangers, aircraft and automotives structures, cooling systems, and load carrying battery packs.
