Cadence Reality DC
delivered by Mansim
Design, Test and Optimise Data Centres Virtually
Cadence Reality DC combines physics-based simulation and digital twin technology to support data centres from engineering design through to ongoing operation.
Model cooling, capacity, infrastructure and failure scenarios before making changes to the physical facility—and use the digital twin to support better operational decisions once the data centre is live.
As a Cadence Channel Partner for the UK & Ireland, Mansim provides software, demonstrations, onboarding and engineering support.

Value Proposition
Why Reality DC Changes the Decision
Maximise Performance
-
Increase performance by integrating power consideration with cooling and area under one platform.
-
Streamline decision making between design and operations.
Optimise Resources
-
Optimise power and cooling infrastructure to maximise efficiency.
-
Report, Assess and improve power, carbon, water, network connections, space and cooling resources.
Minimise Risk
-
Ensure data centre resilience through power and cooling failure analysis.
-
Investigate impact of variations in local weather, power demands and future deployments on redundancy KPIs.
Our Approach
01
Define the Challenge
We clarify the engineering question, performance criteria and required scenarios.
02
Review Inputs
We assess CAD, drawings, operating data and available measurements.
03
Build the Model
We prepare the geometry, mesh, boundary conditions and selected physical models.
04
Verify and Validate
We check convergence, mesh sensitivity and agreement with available evidence.
05
Test and Optimise
We compare operating conditions, design options, failure cases and mitigation measures.
06
Report Recommendations
We deliver clear findings, visualisations and practical engineering actions.
