Ansys and Concepts NREC have partnered to deliver an automated workflow that connects design tools with robust analysis tools for turbomachinery applications. This collaboration integrates Ansys CFX computational fluid dynamics (CFD) analysis software directly into Concepts NREC's AxCent blade design software. The goal is to enable designers to quickly evaluate machine performance with increased predictive accuracy.
Traditionally, turbomachinery engineers would manually transfer data between separate software programs for preliminary blade design and detailed 3D analysis, leading to significant time delays and increased costs. The new technology integration allows Ansys customers using Concepts NREC's design tool to obtain machine performance results from the CFX solver within the same interface, through a "one-click" approach to CFD simulation.
This streamlined workflow shortens design cycles and improves performance for various applications, including compressors, turbines, pumps, fans, and turbochargers. The CFX solver enables robust analysis, ideal for design optimization, helping customers create high-efficiency machines while meeting stringent standards for product safety and environmental impact. AtmosZero, a manufacturer of electrified steam boilers, is already leveraging this integration for its high-temperature compressors.
