Thermo-fluid optimization for space applications

June 24, 2025

Smarter cooling with topology optimization

Duration: 40 mins

Join Fine Physics, Orbex, and ToffeeX for an on-demand webinar on next-generation thermal management design, with a focus on space applications.

Optimization of heat exchange and cooling technology has evolved through various techniques, including Design of Experiments (DOE), parametric optimization, and surrogate modeling. While each method has brought advancements, they’ve also faced limitations, ranging from constraints on parameter complexity to the need for extensive training data.

ToffeeX is pioneering a new technology using direct physics modeling with topology optimization, all within an intuitive software package. This new toolset enables users to apply manufacturing constraints directly within the optimization process, without the need for predefined parameters or large datasets.
