Finite element software for structural, fluid, heat transfer, electromagnetic, and multiphysics problems, including fluid-structure interaction and thermo-mechanical coupling: Adina R&D: Proprietary commercial software: Autodesk Simulation: Finite Element software of Autodesk: Autodesk: Proprietary commercial software: Windows: ANSYS
The number of transfer units (NTU) method is used to calculate the rate of heat transfer in heat exchangers (especially parallel flow, counter current, and cross-flow exchangers) when there is insufficient information to calculate the log mean temperature difference (LMTD).
Actran - finite element-based simulation software to analyze the acoustic behavior of mechanical systems and parts. ADINA - engineering simulation software for structural, fluid, heat transfer, and multiphysics problems. ACSL and acslX - an advanced continuous simulation language.
Finally, the Ansys software simulates and analyzes movement, fatigue, fractures, fluid flow, temperature distribution, electromagnetic efficiency and other effects over time. [46] Ansys also develops software for data management and backup, academic research and teaching. [6] Ansys software is sold on an annual subscription basis. [6]
T is the temperature in particular case of heat transfer otherwise it is the variable of interest; t is time; c is the specific heat; u is velocity; ε is porosity that is the ratio of liquid volume to the total volume; ρ is mass density; λ is thermal conductivity; Q(x,t) is source term representing the capacity of internal sources
The finite volume method (FVM) is a method for representing and evaluating partial differential equations in the form of algebraic equations. [1] In the finite volume method, volume integrals in a partial differential equation that contain a divergence term are converted to surface integrals, using the divergence theorem.
Temperature vs. heat load diagram of hot stream (H 2 O entering at 20 bar, 473.15 K, and 4 kg/s) and cold stream (R-11 entering at 18 bar, 303.15 K, and 5 kg/s) in a counter-flow heat exchanger. "Pinch" is the point of closest approach between the hot and cold streams in the T vs. H diagram.
Diagramatic operation of a thermal wheel Ljungström Air Preheater by Swedish engineer Fredrik Ljungström (1875–1964). A thermal wheel, also known as a rotary heat exchanger, or rotary air-to-air enthalpy wheel, energy recovery wheel, or heat recovery wheel, is a type of energy recovery heat exchanger positioned within the supply and exhaust air streams of air-handling units or rooftop ...
