CFD calculation on labyrinth seals
For CFD calculations on labyrinth gap seals, both 2D and 3D geometries were considered within the framework of a CFD parameter study. This type of seal is a non-contact seal. The sealing effect is based on an extension of the flow path through the gap to be sealed. They are usually used in almost all types of turbomachinery and [...] Read MoreFSI simulation of a cylinder head

The FSI simulation (fluid-structure interaction) describes the interactions between mechanics and flow on the components under consideration. CFD analysis and FE analysis are coupled together. In this simulation example, the influence of air cooling by heat conduction and heat transfer at the cylinder head on the mechanical stresses, deformations and forces in the component is to be investigated. For the execution of the [...] Read More
FE- calculation and force determination via rigid body simulation
For component design using the FEM method, the loads on the assemblies and individual parts to be designed must be determined. For existing designs, measurements are often carried out for this purpose. One method for determining the acting forces is rigid body simulation. For this purpose, the CAD bodies of an assembly, for which component masses, inertia, functional principles and [...] Read MoreComponent optimization and sheet thickness optimization to save material and manufacturing costs
Achieve optimum functionality of your individual or series components with minimum material and cost input through structural optimization, sheet thickness optimization and topography optimization. Save costs by topology optimization (structural optimization) in areas where your part is hardly loaded at all, through the targeted mathematical removal of material without losing stability. Optimize your [...] through topography optimization Read MoreThermoelectric and thermal simulation to ensure product quality

Thermal simulation or thermal calculation enables the representation of heat developments and heat distributions within your assembly in interaction with adjacent individual components. By means of thermoelectric simulation, we depict the heat development through current flow within components and assemblies. Thus, for example, a statement can be made as to whether adjacent components are destroyed or damaged, [...] Read More
