The new CAESES release 5.2 was developed with a strong focus on turbomachinery design and is dedicated to users with the CAESES add-on Turbo. It offers a wide selection of components, workflows, and methods to simplify and streamline the parametric modeling of turbomachinery geometries, while maintaining the high level of freedom and customization that CAESES is known for.
The CAESES Student Award goes into a 3rd round. Submit your report and participate.
For the upcoming holidays, everyone here at FRIENDSHIP SYSTEMS would like to send you our warmest Season’s Greetings and best wishes for a Happy New Year!
The Winner of the CAESES Student Award 2022 is Johanna Serr, a Master of Science Student at the TUHH in Germany.
Centrifugal pumps are commonly used in industrial and residential applications due to their relatively simple design, manufacturing, and ease-of-maintenance. A centrifugal water pump was designed making full use the capabilities of CAESES in the scope of an internship project.
Submit your article in the field of “Simulation-driven Design of Maritime Systems”.
On the special occasion of the upcoming 90th birthday of Prof. Dr.-Ing. Dr. h.c. Horst Nowacki, former head of the section Ship Design at the Technical University Berlin, Germany, and former professor at the University of Michigan, USA, a special issue of Ship Technology Research shall be published in the first half of 2023.
We are excited to attend the Transport Research Arena (TRA) Conference in Lisbon, Portugal from November 14 to 17, 2022 with a presentation on “Holistic Ship Design for Green Shipping”.
On January 1, 2023, the Energy Efficiency Existing Ship Index (EEXI) and Carbon Intensity Indicator (CII) will come into force, creating new challenges for operators of commercial vessels. Ship owners and managers must prepare for these requirements by assessing and improving their vessels as needed. This is crucial in order to earn the proper certificates, allowing them to continue sailing and trading internationally.
For a long time, the COVID-19 pandemic had restricted global travel and events, forcing us to postpone our CAESES User Conference, originally scheduled for autumn 2021. Finally, in 2022, national and international restrictions were eased, and it was exciting to once again be able to host a face-to-face conference to meet our users, educate further and effectively network – something that had long been missed.
The present case study looks at a Left Ventricular Assist Device (LVAD) based on an axial flow pump. CAESES was used as the central hub in the automation workflow. In addition to CAD generation, it was also used as the process integration and design optimization (PIDO) platform. CAESES was coupled to the Ansys Workbench in which the 3D meshing and CFD simulations took place, utilizing the CFX solver.
