Powertrain electrification in automotive, reusable launch systems for the space industry, or the use of alternative fuels (LNG) for ships are examples of technology implementation that the modeling capabilities of Simcenter can support.
You will be able to design and assess the impact of the propulsion system on various metrics, such as onboard power generation or vehicle pollutant emissions, by performing a complete analysis of cross-system influences in a single platform.
Optimize the efficiency of your thermo-fluid systems while ensuring they always operate safely. With Simcenter systems, you can simulate the dynamic behavior of thermo-fluid systems of any size and complexity, analyze complex physical phenomena that are critical for safe and efficient operation, and reuse the digital twin system during the operation phase for real-time monitoring for maximum efficiency and safety.
Simcenter systems allow you to size and balance your industrial gas systems, plant cooling systems, Rankine cycle systems for power generation, marine ballast systems, or large distribution systems and pipelines, all while reducing cost and accelerating time to market.
Simcenter Systems offers the integration of different simulation tools throughout the lifecycle of your system, from early design to the operation phase. This allows you to address the digital continuity challenge and increase the efficiency of your workflows and the collaboration between different departments.
Simcenter Systems supports connections to a product lifecycle management (PLM) system and geometrical data, co-simulations between 1D and 3D CAE tools, design space exploration, model-based controls development and interactions among different systems using the functional mockup interface (FMI).
Simcenter supports the creation of reduced-order models (ROM) in an intuitive interface, providing the best reduction techniques from machine learning, linear algebra and statistics.
A ROM has a small memory footprint, is tool-agnostic and can be operated in real-time allowing for usage as an executable digital twin in all phases of the product lifecycle – enabling better decisions and improved operational excellence.
Simcenter System Analyst is a collaborative solution that helps to maximize return on investments for the model development effort, by sharing models and expanding model usage throughout your company. This leads to better collaboration with all stakeholders in product development and project management.
Leveraging the modeling efforts done by model authors and domain experts, Simcenter System Analyst allows system architects to prepare model architectures and libraries, as well as specific pre- and post-processing. For project teams, it allows the use of the same models and architectures to evaluate hundreds of system variations with design options, and balance mechatronic systems’ performances to meet specific project requirements without compromising quality and performance.
Simcenter System Analyst can be deployed by any type of industrial company and ensures model continuity without changing the toolchain.
The Simcenter system simulation client for git option helps all the actors of the system simulation community to work collaboratively, supplying the daily management of simulation assets, including branching, versioning and role-based access control.
Using the client for git also allows you to keep track of dependencies, related content and all other data that is part of the model, so you have a precise representation of the system simulation domain.
Deploy collaborative model development most efficiently with the help of optimized data transfers and search algorithms combined with an efficient and fully integrated user experience.
