Flownex Simulation Environment 2024 v8.16.0.5519

Flownex Simulation Environment provides technology that allows you to study how systems will operate in the real world, where fluids are the driving factor. It relays the overall impact of changing specific characteristics on components, allowing customers to comprehensively test all possible system variations in system design and optimization.

• Turbine blade cooling: By combining 1D flow Flownex models with 3D heat transfer models in ANSYS Mechanical or CFX, detailed turbine blade cooling simulations can be performed . Flownex includes industry-standard pressure drop and heat transfer correlations for typical turbine blade features such as turbulence bands and sills. This allows designers to quickly see the impact of changes in their design on maximum fan blade temperature and cooling airflow rate.
• Combustion chamber: The preliminary design of a combustion chamber requires the evaluation and comparison of a large number of geometric and operating conditions.
• Lubrication system: The main use of Flownex in the lubrication system is to determine the optimal discharge line size in limited space conditions inside the engine.
• Flownex includes a comprehensive rotating parts library for analyzing gas turbine engine secondary air systems. This allows engineers to quantify air consumption and air flow distribution throughout the system.
