Simulation methods
Thermomechanical simulations, computational fluid dynamics (CFD) and multiphysics calculations.
In order to design and optimize manufacturing and operating processes, thermomechanical simulations, computational fluid dynamics (CFD) and multiphysics calculations are performed. Calculations can feature complex material models as well as multiphase and reactive flow. The computational effort is processed on our in-house simulation cluster with almost 300 processor cores and more than 3.1 TB of RAM.
A wide range of software tools (Abaqus, Ansys, Comsol, Flow3D, Matlab, Numeca, OpenFoam, Python and more) backed up with experimental validation of measurement variables and physical properties using the relevant infrastructure.
Areas of application relate to components and plants for energy systems in general, ranging from development and optimization of power electronics and sensor design over casting processes to sonic toothbrushes, filter systems and atomization systems.
