How to Listen to your Ansys Mechanical Simulation using Ansys Sound

A harmonic acoustics analysis in Ansys Mechanical™ structural finite element analysis software can provide insight into sound pressure levels generated from a variety of excitation sources acting on or within a device. But why stop there? Much more can be learned by experiencing that sound as an audible signal. Continue in this course to learn how Ansys Mechanical software and Ansys Sound™ post-processing sound design software can bring your acoustic simulations to life.

Learning Outcomes: 

Following Completion of this course you will be able to:

• Open Ansys Sound software from Ansys Mechanical software
• Listen to the simulated data
• Compare simulation and test data
• Mix the simulated sound data with other sound sources to understand how the result will sound.

A typical application for this workflow is the simulation of an electric motor.

Prerequisites:

• Completion of the Ansys Mechanical Acoustics course
• Familiarity with the Ansys Sound - Analysis and Specification Getting Started course is recommended but not required.

Please note: These training materials were developed and tested in the 2022R1 release.
