In today’s world, engineers and architects increasingly employ engineering simulation so the design of public spaces can meet safety, energy-efficiency and sustainability goals within strict project timelines. Simulation software is used to create a virtual prototype and calculate the heating, ventilation and air conditioning (HVAC) performance of a building or space. This virtual building design approach leads to a rapid investigation of alternative designs, a better understanding of elements that can improve performance and exploration of a more innovative solution.

APPLICATIONS

Performance optimization

Ansys simulation solutions help designers rapidly evaluate alternatives and refine designs early in their product development process, enabling them to radically reduce physical prototyping and expedite high-quality products to market. Additionally, insightful real-world case studies will highlight how global companies successfully leverage Ansys simulations during key product development cycle stages.

Drop test

Drop test and impact analysis are areas of interest in many industries including HVAC manufacturing. Engineers seek the best ways to make their products robust and reliable. Ansys LS-DYNA is a nonlinear explicit finite element code that is used widely in these industries to model drop and impact simulation to understand product integrity and determine critical regions in the assembly.

Fire safety & Smoke management

In the architecture engineering and construction (AEC) industry, there is no prototype: The cost and time required for construction is such that the first prototype is usually the final building. So it is not surprising that this industry widely embraces virtual prototyping through engineering simulation to troubleshoot and optimize any project. Engineers designing fire and smoke management systems utilize simulation to address occupants’ safety, facilities’ structural integrity, and compliance with regulations.

Human thermal comfort

Maintaining the standard of thermal comfort for occupants of buildings or other enclosures is one of the important goals of HVAC (heating, ventilation, and air conditioning) design engineers. Ansys can be used to compute Predicted Mean Vote (PMV) and Predicted Percentage Dissatisfied (PPD) from the solution data and create a report containing the maximum and minimum values of PMV and PPD in the computational domain along with contour of PMV and PPD at different sections across the computation
