Heat Transfer Simulations for Turbomachinery

Most machines, such as high-heat turbines (gas and steam), boilers, and combustors for example, require strict control of thermal stresses and expansions. Due to the very particular nature of heat transfer, establishing this control can be both tedious and time consuming. With using CFD tools such as Ansys Fluent, Siemens Star-ccm+ and FEA Tools such as Abaqus, Nastran and LS-DYNA, with experienced engineers, we can calculate parameters of heat transfer between components.

By accurately modeling the behavior of fluids and heat transfer within the system, our engineers can identify potential hotspots and areas of thermal stress, make informed decisions about materials selection, cooling strategies, and optimize component designs to minimize these issues.
