Numerical techniques can be used to simulate almost any structural
or fluid problem, and even to predict engine and vehicle performance.
From the infancy of this technology, Orbital has been at the forefront
in the application of these tools to the development of engine and
related products. Many of these tools have been used in the course
of base engine development to shorten the design optimisation cycle.
Key capabilities include:
- Finite Element Analysis (FEA) - structural,
thermal, magnetic field, electric field and acoustic on complex
structures and complex boundaries / interactions
- Computational Fluid Dynamics (CFD) analysis
- moving and sliding meshes, multiphase fluids, combustion, reactions
and radiation
- Mechanical dynamic simulation of multiple
rigid and/or flexible bodies with complex interactions between
mechanical components (coupled to FEA and CFD)
- One-dimensional CFD for engine tuning studies
and fuel system optimisatio
- Vehicle performance simulation - prediction
of fuel consumption / emissions, acceleration and performance
If you have a problem to model, why not let
Orbital identify the most cost effective way to analyse it.
