6SigmaDC软件由英国Future Facilities公司开发，专门用于数据中心设计与管理及电子产品散热分析，适合结构工程师、IT人员、产品经理、应用工程师和数据中心设计或维护人员使用。和一般CFD软件最大不同之处在于除了可当作设计工具外，还可针对数据中心的热管理提供最完整的解决方案。借助6SigmaDC的分析和模拟，用户可以减少产品设计成本、降低数据中心基础设施的运行和维护成本、提高数据中心的使用寿命。
6SigmaDC软件可以解决不同级别的散热问题：
▲ 数据中心级：针对机房、环境等的热分析
▲ 机柜级：机箱机柜及舱内等系统级的热分析
▲ 设备级：电子模块，PCB板，芯片封装等的热分析

Future Facilities, a leading provider of Predictive DCIM software for data centre design and operations announced the availability of the 6SigmaDC Suite Release 7.1. The software update offers improved functionality with a major focus on increased usability for modelling and reporting.
New features such as 'Snap Functionality' provide continuous visual feedback about the placement of objects relative to one another in the model. In essence, users can now build complex models with both confidence and speed without having to check the alignment of data centre components as they build their Virtual Facility.
A powerful new search tool has been applied enabling dynamic searches of the entire 6SigmaDC library. The database of equipment images for use within the Virtual Facility has been further strengthened with the addition of 250 new symbols, as well as the inclusion of a comprehensive catalogue of Great Lakes' 5-star E, EN and ES Series equipment cabinets. Continuous error checking has also been improved, and users now have the option to turn it off while building a model inside the Virtual Facility.
Release 7.1 also offers improvements to cooling duct design and modelling with easier sketching. This, coupled with the ability to manipulate the graphical view in the snap function, enables users to join transitions from one shape to another with speed and precision, allowing additional cooling vents to be changed effortlessly from 'hollow' to 'solid'.
Other notable features of 6SigmaDC Release 7.1 include:
- Thin objects can now dissipate heat from the collapsed surface according to the local heat transfer coefficients
- Controllers are now even more flexible and can be set to control both temperature and pressure simultaneously, enabling the user to prioritize one or the other. For example, an ACU's fan may be controlled by temperature, but can also be set to maintain a minimum pressure within the floor void
- New Solution enhancements have been added, including the ability to freeze flow while continuing solution of temperature, a new extension to the parallel solver to speed up convergence of conduction when solving on multiple processors, and the ability to choose to store density for later inspection
- 6SigmaPower has been extended to allow full connectivity of the power chain, from utility supply to the socket.
