As the summer rages on, everyone is looking for ways to quickly cool off. ☀️🥵 An Automatic icemaker can keep cold cubes flowing steadily throughout the day. You might think the process is straightforward, but small details like icemaker mounting angle, surface tension of the materials, and even flow rate, can significantly influence how water fills, drains, and ultimately freezes. Rapidly prototyping a mold in the traditional way can be difficult, and can fail to expose issues early on. Alternatively, simulation software like Ansys FreeFlow provides a fast way to visualize fill behavior, water retention, and ice clearing potential, so that design risks can be identified before costly prototypes are built. 🧊 Learn more about Ansys FreeFlow, how it visualizes water behavior, and the performance of simulation-driven design vs. physical prototyping: https://bit.ly/4vH7daS
