One of the biggest challenges in predicting fatigue failure is characterizing the load over the lifetime of a part. Using simulation solutions, like ANSYS Mechanical and ANSYS nCode DesignLife, engineers can run numerous load and design variations to ensure their products meet fatigue specifications and will continue to perform beyond the warranty period. Better yet, they can perform simulations and optimizations before building the product. In this way, engineers can make improvements early in the development cycle and utilize optimization algorithms to further streamline the design process. In this webinar, participants will learn the difference between material fatigue and high- and low-cycle fatigue failure, plus how to account for fatigue in design using simulation.
Say goodbye to complicated user-defined functions (UDF) and hello to expressions. With no deep knowledge of programming, you can easily enter an expression, either directly in the field where it will be applied or as a named expression that can be reused at multiple locations. Attend this webinar to learn how to simplify the specification of complex boundary and cell zone conditions with a wide range of powerful expressions, including: Positional variables Field variables Solution variables Reduction operations

Ansys Fluent has been enhanced to organize the process for running simulations with a task-based workflow that guides you through the simulation process, reduces the options to only those that are relevant at each point in the process and provides best practices as defaults. This workflow presents you with the right choices to lead you to an accurate solution, making it possible to develop a better product in less time. Read this white paper to see how the new workflow can be can be utilized to reduce the time and software skill required to mesh watertight CAD geometry.
Combustion of fossil fuel for energy and transportation purposes is believed to be one of the most important causes of large-scale environmental pollution. Different types of alternative fuels are being investigated to replace these fossil fuels. One of the more recent alternative fuels that has attracted the attention of the research community is butanol, due to its favorable thermophysical properties. This webinar discusses the development and validation of an n-dodecane/n-butanol/NOx/PAH reaction mechanism consisting of 246 species and 1,062 reactions, as simulated using Ansys Chemkin Pro. This mechanism was validated using ignition and species data from the open literature. Subsequently, the mechanism was coupled in Ansys Fluent to simulate turbulent combustion dynamics inside a compression ignition engine. Liquid spray combustion was simulated using a coupled Eulerian-Lagrangian approach. We also used the KHRT droplet breakup model, the standard k-ε turbulence model and the unsteady flamelet model to simulate combustion chemistry and turbulence interaction. The liquid spray combustion model was validated using ECN Spray A data. Subsequently, a parametric study was performed to understand the effect of engine operating conditions on NOx and soot emissions. This webinar considers the effects of various parameters on engine performance, like the injection pressure, the start of injection and split injection for various n-butanol blend ratios.
Selecting the correct Intel processor family and processor model number to run Ansys Fluent and Ansys Mechanical workloads is a critical design decision that directly impacts the costs and benefits of computer aided engineering (CAE) efforts. To assist customers, Intel collaborated with Ansys and with MVConcept to measure the performance of select Intel Xeon Scalable processor families using both single and multi-node Ansys Fluent and Ansys Mechanical official benchmarks spanning a range of size regimes and solvers. The performance results reflect the complex relationship between computational efficiency, processor core count, core frequency and memory bandwidth.
