Abstract
A simulator comprises a fluid property acquiring unit for acquiring the properties of a fluid to be discharged; a mesh division unit for dividing the surface of a CAD model for a workpiece into meshes; an application amount calculation unit for calculating the amount of the fluid applied to each mesh; a maximum film thickness calculation unit for calculating the maximum film thickness of the fluid that each mesh can hold; and a first moving amount calculation unit for calculating, for each mesh, a first moving amount by which the fluid in an amount determined by the properties of the fluid moves relative to the mesh located at a position lower than said each mesh among the meshes adjacent to said each mesh when the film thickness of the applied fluid is larger than the maximum film thickness of the fluid that each mesh can hold.
