Latest Process simulation Stories

NEW YORK, LONDON and YOKOHAMA, Japan, June 21, 2012 /PRNewswire/ -- In a webinar earlier this week, CD-adapco and Red Cedar Technology announced they have joined forces to offer a breakthrough solution for design exploration and optimization with CAE/CFD simulation. Optimate and Optimate+ are add-on modules for STAR-CCM+ that directly employ state-of-the-art process automation and design optimization technology from Red Cedar. The Optimate solution, which includes CD-adapco's Power...

The increased requirements on efficient production of clean energy have introduced the necessity to develop new power plant concepts. The basic functionality of the new ideas is tested in small scale pilot plants. Advanced ICT tools based on numerical calculations are, however, needed to evaluate the application to full scope plants in advance. VTT Technical Research Centre of Finland and the energy company Fortum have for these purposes released a new version 5.09 of Apros (Advanced process...

Crash tests often produce startling results. A new simulation process which factors in deformation during production as well as preliminary damage can predict the results of a crash test more accurately than ever.There are components that save lives: if a car rolls over during an accident, the "˜B-pillar' plays a key role. It forms one of the connections between the floor and roof of the vehicle and is designed to prevent the passenger cell from deforming too much. The materials from which...
