Klaus Straka is one of our absolutely amazing CAESES® users, who is active in the field of polymer injection molding. In the context of fully-automated shape optimization with CFD (fluid flow simulation), he creates incredible parametric geometries with CAESES® that are…
In a recent work, we optimized an airborne optical sensor, which is typically built into an impressive device for sensing data remotely, e.g. from helicopters. The mirror blanks for the optical sensor are made from glass ceramics with an extremely…
We are excited to announce the first release of our online propeller tools. This web service is driven by CAESES® and generates solid propeller geometry by means of the famous Wageningen B-Series profiles. All provided tools are easy to use…
We are excited to be a sponsor of the amazing Virgina Tech team that works on a human powered submarine. The team uses CAESES® to develop an advanced propeller design for the submarine. More information about this ambitious project can be…
At the CAESES Users Meeting 2o17, David Bendl from VOITH Turbo gave an update and further insights into his work on the VOITH Linear Jet (VLJ). The VLJ combines the best properties of propellers with the best properties of waterjets.…
In our research project GAMMA we closely work together with MTU Friedrichshafen to optimize components of large turbochargers. Nicolas Lachenmaier, one of the leading aerodynamics engineers at MTU, uses CAESES® for the design of the turbine components. He provides a…
Are you up for some new experiences when it comes to automating your pump or valve design process? In the context of our January webinar series, we have a special offering that is running until the end of February 2018:…
Check out our events section – there are two great webinars coming up: Pumps and Valves Webinar On January 18, 2018, we’ll talk about Design Studies and Optimization with CAESES and Simerics-MP. In this webinar, Simerics and FRIENDSHIP SYSTEMS…
Intake ports are the final part of an engine’s air induction system. They connect the intake manifold with the combustion chamber and are opened and closed with the intake valves. This blog post gives you a short introduction of the relevant intake port design capabilities within CAESES®. In addition, a recent project is outlined where CAESES® and STAR-CCM+ were coupled to fully automate the shape optimization of an intake port.
A piston bowl is a recess in the piston crown primarily used in (direct injection) Diesel engines, where it basically forms the combustion chamber. The design and shape of the piston bowl influences the movement of air and fuel during…
