In an economy where negative growth is all-too-normal, Fluent Incorporated reports dramatic and sustained growth in its computational fluid dynamics software products, particularly its Icepak software for desktop simulation of electronics cooling. Icepak, which entered the electronics cooling software market 7 years ago, grew its total revenue by 19% and thermal software license revenue by 12% in 2002 worldwide. In the first five years of its existence, its annualized growth was 60%. The software revenue in the first quarter of 2003 grew by 15% over the same period last year.
Swimming Upstream
How has this software achieved such robust growth while serving an industry in a downturn? "Thermal modeling in the design process is relatively new, and as its benefits have been seen more clearly amongst electronics designers, it has naturally become a 'must-have' tool on the designer's desktop, so some of this is driven by the growth curve of thermal modeling as a technology," says Prabhu Sathyamurthy, Icepak Business Manager for Fluent.
