FLOMASTER Capabilities
FLOMASTER can be used at every phase of product development. Exploit it to analyze and size thermo-fluidic systems, and in particular to:
- Simulate pressure waves, temperatures and flows in any point of the plant;
- Swiftly assess the impact of plant layout variations, component variations and operating conditions on the overall performance of the plant.
Components Catalogue and Direct CAD-import
- Vast catalogue of components to choose among, with accurate characterization and high reliability.
- The CAD2FM feature allows you to import complex networks of pipes from 3D modeling tools, eliminating tedious re-modeling operations in FLOMASTER.
Powerful Solver for Transient Analysis
- Versatile solver for static and transient analysis of compressible and incompressible systems, with heat exchange analysis;
- Predictive simulation of pressure waves, temperatures and flow rates.
Open Architecture
- Develop your own components within the platform.
- Create scripts to check hydraulic components or networks.
- The Open API structure allows the integration of proprietary software developed in-house, within the simulation process.
- The Functional Mock-up Interface (FMI) supports the export of models and co-simulation with other CAE tools.
- Export the hydrodynamic forces generated by a transient event, such as a time history that can be used for stress analysis with tools like SST CAEPIPE and Integraph® CAESAR II®.
DOE – Design of Experiments
- DOE tool allows to perform “what-if” analysis in a thermo-fluidic environment.
- The “Latin Square” algorithm allows you to generate a unique combination of input values within the imposed boundaries. This allows the creation of meta-models and response surfaces which are then processed by FLOMASTER.
- Monte Carlo simulations are used to produce probability-based simulations.
