	Steady Coupled Fluid Flow and Thermal Analysis of a Heat Exchanger A steady coupled fluid flow and thermal analysis of this closed-loop, liquid-filled heat exchanger was conducted. The model demonstrates the production of convective flow due to fluid buoyancy at varying temperatures as well as the effect of the resulting flow on the temperatre distribution.	56K   100K 250K
	Multiphysics Analysis of a Circuit Breaker This multiphysics simulation of a common single-pole residential circuit breaker combines electrostatic, transient heat transfer and Mechanical Event Simulation analyses to determine the trip time and behavior. When subjected to an overload condition, the bimetallic strip in the breaker deforms due to Joule heating and trips the mechanism to break the circuit.	56K   100K 250K
