Description

Ansys SpaceClaim offers a distinctive user interface, innovative modeling technology, and a versatile set of tools that facilitate the creation and modification of imported geometries without the intricacies often found in conventional CAD systems. While managing existing CAD models, users can effortlessly de-feature and streamline geometry using automated tools that are straightforward to master. This software is particularly suited for engineers who require rapid 3D solutions but lack the time to navigate elaborate CAD tools. SpaceClaim equips analysts with capabilities that expedite geometry preparation for simulations, whether that involves de-featuring CAD models, isolating fluid domains, or converting a model to beam and shell elements. By alleviating geometry-related obstacles, SpaceClaim allows analysts to concentrate on their simulations without interruption. With enhanced control over geometry, analysts can foster simulation-driven design, reduce delays between design and analysis teams, and quickly assess how modifications to designs affect outcomes, ultimately leading to more efficient workflows and better project results. Consequently, the integration of SpaceClaim into engineering practices significantly enhances productivity and collaboration.

Description

Ansys BladeModeler is a user-friendly software specifically designed for the swift creation of 3D models of rotating machinery parts. This tool facilitates the design of various types of blade components, including axial, mixed-flow, and radial blades, which are essential in devices such as pumps, compressors, fans, blowers, turbines, expanders, turbochargers, and inducers, among others. Ansys BladeModeler seamlessly integrates with Ansys DesignModeler, providing robust 3D geometry modeling capabilities that enable the addition of numerous geometric features, including hub metal, blade fillets, and various cut-offs and trims. The software allows for the combination of blade designs with non-bladed components, such as housings, blade roots, or intricate 3D tip regions, enhancing design flexibility. These non-bladed elements can be either created within the software or imported through CAD connections compatible with all leading CAD platforms, ensuring limitless design possibilities for assembly and evaluation. Users also have the option to select the degree of geometric detail they wish to incorporate into their analyses, tailoring the experience to their specific engineering needs. This versatility makes Ansys BladeModeler an invaluable tool for engineers looking to innovate in the field of rotating machinery design.
