We have an exciting announcement about badges coming in May 2025. Until then, we will temporarily stop issuing new badges for course completions and certifications. However, all completions will be recorded and fulfilled after May 2025.

      In addition to learning the power of Discovery AIM in these tutorials, the following application examples will expand your knowledge and discovery to new levels.

      Download and open these files with saved solutions in Discovery AIM and review the setup and solution to gain an understanding of what ANSYS can help you Discover.


       

      1) Fluid-Solid Heat Transfer Simulation of a Cold Plate

      Application example of fluid-solid heat transfer of a cold plate. This case is set up with multiple materials in a single solid thermal region. This project requires release 19.0 or newer.

      2) Fluid Flow Thermal Simulation of a Shell Tube Heat Exchanger With Baffles

      Application example of a shell tube heat exchanger with baffles simulation. This is a fluid flow and thermal simulation where hot water in the shell is cooled by cold water moving through the tubes. The temperature distribution through the steel structure is also calculated. This project requires release 19.0 or newer.

      3) Fluid-Solid Heat Transfer and Structural Simulation of an Air Cooled Engine

      Application example of an air cooled engine simulation with fluid-solid heat transfer and structural coupling. A heat source is specified in the engine and convective cooling effects from the surrounding air are calculated as well as the temperature distribution through the engine. The engine temperatures are then sent to a structural simulation, where the thermally induced stresses are calculated. This project requires release 19.0 or newer.

      4) Fluid-Solid Heat Transfer and Structural Simulation of a Cooling Jacket

      Application example of a cooling jacket simulation with fluid-solid heat transfer and structural coupling. Hot water is passed through the middle of the device and cold water goes through the jacket. The temperature distribution through the steel jacket is calcaluted. The temperatures are then sent to a structural simulation, where the thermally induced stresses are calculated. This project requires release 19.0 or newer.
