⁠Siemens Simcenter STAR-CCM+!

Simulation of a mixer used in battery cell preproduction. 2% dense liquid is poured into 98% less dense. This simulation of a mixer was used to optimize
mixing process of battery electrode slurry. A dense black liquid is poured into a clear liquid, stirred thoroughly and released after reaching an equilibrium.

Simcenter STAR-CCM+ enables process engineers to ensure constant substance distribution in minimum mixing time, optimizing the process before setting them up. The visualisation shows the volume fraction of the dense substance in the whole solution. The final state would be all liquid yellow, representing a constant volume fraction of 2% dense liquid.

⁠CFD simulation of me, casually drifting in my business jet on my way back home from Paris Air Show🛫😂
What is this simulation about?
🌪 it is a Wall-Modelled Large Eddy Simulation (WLMES), one of the greatest turbulence fidelities commercial solvers like Simcenter STAR-CCM+ offer.

🕸 130 million cells, polyhedral mesh.

👬
coupled flow solver...

🖥 ... running on GPUs. It took 24x NVIDIA A100 6 hours runtime to simulate

⏲ ... 1s physical time.

✈️ Flight parameters are on the edge: I am no aircraft expert or hobby pilot, but this jet is literally drifting through the air,
partly stalling, traveling a bit sideways.
🤷‍♂️
If you know the correct term for this vague description please let me know!

Do you think it is appropriate to display it like that? Did you get the impression that this jet is burning and falling from the sky? 😱
The visualization shows turbulence, meaning an isosurface Q-Criterion = 500 /s colored in Mach.

The colorbar is even matching the background colors, I call it MrBlueSky 😁

With #Simcenter STAR-CCM+ you can analyze a complex combustion system, in this example a pressurized annular combustion chamber, and add hydrogen to the fuel to reduce the CO2 emissions generated. This system can be analyzed using a high-fidelity LES model combined with the Flamelet Generated Manifold combustion model to accurately predict thermoacoustic behavior. And even better, all this can be done natively on GPUs to drastically accelerate the rendering time.

In this study, we conducted venting experiments in a 1m3 silo to validate our model based on CFD. Results are in excellent agreement with experiments, marking a significant milestone in establishing an effective modeling strategy for simulating dust explosions and determining optimal vent sizes to ensure industrial safety.

User-defined Lagrangian break-up modeling will give you more flexibility to model complex break-up scenarios like in this afterburner of a jet engine Useful in many applications, for others, classical secondary breakup models (like SSD, TAB, Reitz-Diwakar, KHRT) may not always provide acceptable accuracy for the size distribution of droplets. While a high-fidelity hybrid multiphase approach offers an accurate alternative it is not always feasible due to simulation effort constraints. In Simcenter STAR-CCM+ 2210, we therefore introduce the user-defined breakup
model for Lagrangian multiphase to allow you to implement any existing breakup model in literature with maximum flexibility. The implemented solution allows you to specify an arbitrary number of the breakup outcomes and then input the breakup map using field function or table input method. The breakup map specifies the conditions for each breakup outcome. For simulating combustors in gas turbines or breakup in sprays generated by pre-filming air blast atomizers used in aero-engines, it is difficult to get sufficiently accurate predictions with standard break-up models. The new user coding option offers you full flexibility to implement any application-tailored model like for example the Madabhushi breakup for fuel jets in cross-flow.

An engine expected to consume substantially less fuel when
compared with traditional ducted turbofans? Let us introduce you to open rotor
engines. ✈️
This simulation demonstrates the capability of CFD solver to predict the
aerodynamics and the aeroacoustics of an open rotor. These capabilities are
instrumental for engine and aircraft manufacturers to make essential design
decisions to ensure functionality. One of the major noise sources in open
rotors is the front-aft rotor interaction: the wakes coming from front blade
trailing edges are conveyed downstream and impact aft blade leading edges.
Several strategies exist to minimize this interaction noise: changing the
number of blades per rotor, cropping the aft blade, re-twisting blades to shift
vertical structures towards less sensitive regions and masking the engines
thanks to the tail planes or wings. Manufacturers need high-fidelity
simulations like the one shown here to assess the tradeoff of each design
decision.

⁠CFD of a mixed combustion 🔥

This simulation predicts the behavior of in-cylinder combustion of mixed gasses: classical fuel plus hydrogen. Even if you are not a petrol head, this seems interesting. Currently, a lot of research is going into alternative fuel supplies to de-carbonize transport. And we are not exactly talking about cars, trucks or trains. We need also to consider ships, which heavily rely on diesel cylinder engines nowadays. And to be honest: I, personally, do not yet see an opportunity to replace this propulsion with tons of batteries in the near future. But what if we cut carbon dioxide emissions by 50%? That is one step in the right direction. But for now, let's enjoy some

Dorsoventral undulation, a propulsion technique widely employed by aquatic mammals, plays a significant role in their swimming abilities. Among these skilled swimmers, dolphins are particularly renowned for their high-efficiency cruising capabilities. In fact, the common dolphin (Delphinus delphis) can reach speed of up to 37mph.⛵️🚤🐠🐳

⁠🚀🛬 Discover how CFD
has revolutionised the aerospace industry by enabling accurate simulation of landing gear systems. ✈️ Our advanced software empowers engineers to optimise design, enhance safety, and reduce operational costs. The landing gear of an aircraft plays a pivotal role in ensuring safe and efficient landings. Designing and analysing landing gear systems can be a complex task, as they undergo significant stress and loads during operations. This is where CFD emerges as a game-changer! With its advanced simulation capabilitiesn and user-friendly interface, it empowers engineers to accurately predict the aerodynamic behaviour of landing gear systems. Through the utilisation of CFD, we have successfully simulated various landing scenarios, including normal landings, crosswind landings, and emergencies. The software allows us to assess the impact of crucial factors such as aircraft speed, angle of attack, and wind conditions on the performance and stability of landing gear. It allows us to optimise the design of landing gear systems, achieving an ideal balance between strength, reliability, weight, and drag. As a result, this significantly enhances fuel efficiency and leads to reduced operational costs for airlines. CFD empowers us to identify potential issues and challenges in landing gear performance at the early stages of the design process. By gaining insights into aerodynamic forces, pressure distribution, and flow patterns around the landing gear, we can make informed design modifications and enhancements, ensuring the utmost safety for aircraft operations.✈️💡

Tunnel Pressure Signature 🚅
When designing train, compliance with the Locomotives and Passengers Technical Specification for Interoperability (Loc&Pas TSI) is crucial. This standard gives some criteria concerning the pressure signal generated when a train enters a tunnel. CFD simulations are used to analyze and optimize the external design, considering the complex interactions between the train and the surrounding air during the tunnel entry. Overset mesh is a powerful tool available in Star-CCM+ to model such unsteady rigid boy motion.

Battery Thermal CFD 🔋

This CFD simulation shows the differences between an assembly of continuously
tabbed prismatic cells and discretely tabbed cells in battery simulation.

Which effects are taken into account?
⚡️ Battery charging/discharging, modeling the State of Charge in different loadcycles. The discrete cells show significant differences due to their better spacial resolution.

🔥 Temperature in the whole setup AND single cells in great fidelity.
