VECTIS - Thermal management of engine and vehicle systems

New hybrid and clean fuel systems place more rigorous demands on thermal management. The ability to quickly and automatically create meshes enables fast, accurate Conjugate Heat Transfer (CHT) analysis to identify and optimise thermally critical locations.

Key features

  • Extensive surface geometry pre-processing tools including Boolean functions
  • Large detailed meshes created automatically
  • Prediction of boiling and resulting heat transfer
  • Easy set-up of component models, such as fans, turbines and radiators
  • Fully energy coupled Conjugate Heat Transfer (CHT) solver
  • Extended thermal data post processing as well as option for direct export of CFD results for use in Finite Element (FE) analysis tools such as Realis FEARCE-Vulcan
