Solving the Data Center Cooling Challenge: Cloud-Native Simulation & Engineering AI in Practice
February 26, 2026
4:00 p.m. CET / 10:00 a.m. ET
The demand for high-performance liquid cooling in data centers is surging, forcing engineering teams to deliver advanced thermal solutions faster than ever before. However, typical design and simulation workflows are slow and expert-bottlenecked, stifling innovation and delaying time-to-market.
In this webinar, Dr. Kevin Simon (CTO, Alloy Enterprises) and Dr. Steve Lainé (SimScale) will discuss how to accelerate new product design (NPD) and drive greater innovation by giving more engineers access to cloud-native simulation and CAD tools. Alloy Enterprises has successfully democratized thermal design within their team, leveraging their “Stack Forging” process and cloud-native tools to deliver market-leading microcapillary cold plates for direct-to-chip liquid cooling.
They’ll explore the practical side of democratization—going beyond just tools to include skills, culture, and infrastructure—and how SimScale’s new AI solutions, including Engineering AI and Physics AI, are empowering engineers to automate manual tasks and predict performance instantly.
In this webinar you’ll learn:
Application Engineering Team Lead
Steve is an Application Engineering Leader at SimScale. He has a technical foundation, with a Masters degree in Mechanical Engineering and a Ph.D. in Materials Science. He has +7 years of industry-relevant experience from working in aerospace design and engineering simulation.
Chief Technology Officer
Kevin holds a PhD from MIT, where he specialized in turbomachinery and precision machine design under Professor Alex Slocum. He is a former startup founder and alumnus of MIT’s Delta-V accelerator, and has worked with five other startups on technology and product development, including two based out of Otherlab, a private tough-tech incubator in San Francisco. His experience also includes time in the manufacturing sector at Watts Water, a $9.5 billion industrial corporation.
Senior Product Marketing Manager
Alex has a technical background in simulation and started his career in aerodynamics at the Renault F1 Team. Now his focus is on communicating the value of engineering simulation to the community and advocating for solutions. He holds a Masters in Engineering Science from Oxford University.
SimScale is the world’s first cloud-native SaaS engineering simulation platform, giving engineers and designers immediate access to digital prototyping early in the design stage, throughout the entire R&D cycle, and across the entire enterprise. By providing instant access to a single fluid, thermal, and structural simulation tool built on the latest cloud computing technology, SimScale has moved high-fidelity physics simulation technology from a complex and cost-prohibitive desktop application to a user-friendly web application, accessible to any designer and engineer in the world.
