An application example of a swirl diffuser

Comparative study between two exhaust silencers.  Can the flow within the first section be improved with a small design change.
We will test to find out!

Rotor and shaft connection analysis. 4 step simulation:
1. Interference fit
2. Centrifugal load
3. Torque
4. Temperature increase

Structural simulation according to UN 38.3 T3 vibration test criteria

Design study of a passively cooled LED module to inform heat sink material selection

This case validates the thermal management inside an LED against the CFD and experimental results obtained in the conference paper, Thermal Analyses and Measurements of Low-Cost COP Package for High-Power LED, using the Conjugate Heat Transfer v2.0 analysis type in SimScale.

LED Spotlight project, aiming a bring the temperature of the diodes of a LED spotlight design below the maximum allowed temperature of 100C.

This project shows the sliding of a rubber seal on a rigid body due to applied displacement.

In this SimScale project, inspired by this article on cooling effectiveness, a CFD thermal analysis is used to predict the temperature of 30 commercial Li-ion 18650 cells under multiple casing designs and inlet flow conditions. The goal is to find the minimum cooling power so that the cells are kept below 40C.

Conjugate heat transfer simulation to analyse the thermal performance of water cooled transistors.

Flow through different vent diffuser designs and analysis of occupant thermal comfort.

Utilisation of CFD in the design cycle for a ventilation Louvre and duct system

Example of how  Pedestrian Wind Comfort CFD analysis can be used within an architects design process.

Investigation of occupant thermal comfort for a naturally ventilated warehouse.

Validating CO level during normal operations

Natural Ventilation of a department store.

Air flow and contamination spread for multiple cleanroom designs

Internal flow and thermal analysis to understand the thermal comfort within a large atrium.  This is a typical example of the type of applications that our AEC customers perform on a regular basis.

Internal CFD to analyse air flow and thermal comfort

Analyse the duct positioning to have effective ventilation system

Internal CFD study of air flow and thermal comfort.

Engineering study of solar panels, including:

1. Wind loading and static structural analysis of a single panel

2. Transient wind analysis of a panel array

The project shows how to use FEA to accurately predict the performance of a thermal shipper pack.

A small part of the SimScale office . We actually don't have any active cooling here (Germany) so we took a few liberties to make this more interesting!

Learn how to perform structural analysis utilizing non-linear material properties

This project provides a setup template for analyzing the thermal comfort within a ventilated office space. The effects of radiation on the temperature distribution are included.

Static-Linear structural analysis of a loaded mechanical arm with multiple contacts.

This project analyses the dynamic impact stresses and deformation exerted on a pair of headphones that have been dropped from head height. A geometry change has been made after reviewing the max stresses in order to mitigate the risk of breakage.

This project uses a steady-state CFD analysis to investigate the aerodynamic performance and energy conversion capability of a vertical axis wind turbine. Both a stationary and rotating case is considered.

This analysis shows a use case for the frequency analysis on the SimScale platform.

The presented project is an analysis of the thermal performance of a heat sink connected to chip. The chip acts as a power source generating 30W of heat. Using a conjugate heat transfer analysis allows for simulation of heat transfer between the solids via conduction and the dissipation of heat into the ambient fluid via convection. The components are cooled passively and buoyancy effects  drive the flow in the surrounding air.

The objective of this project is to evaluate the max temperature of the chip during operation and therefore a steady state analysis was carried out.
