Does anyone know what is good in simulation software?

 

I'm looking for something that will model electrical, mechanical and hydraulic systems.

Well, Spice-based programs like Electronics Workbench are good for simulating electronic circuits.

From what I can remember, you can find loads of interesting simulation software that's free on SourceForge. Some of it might be in alpha development stages but it's always worth it to look around there.

Thanks lads. I'll check out sourceforge.

 

I have been trying 20-sim which does electrical, mechanical and hydraulic sims, but cannot find anything else that does all three. I already use Protel for electronics simulation.

All three? I can't remember the title but my cousin had one, and it was free too. I'll send him an e-mail, see if he says anything about it.

Hi there:

 

Lots of free engineering e-solutions for energy conversion systems at http://members.aol.com/engware.

 

Thanks,

Here's 20-Sim's website if you are interested. There's a free download there too. Can't remember the price, but it's a nice bit of software. It does control systems too.

Thanks all for your assistance on this.

 

I'll check out your suggestion engware, thanks.
