Simcenter Star CCM+ is an advanced computational fluid dynamics (CFD) tool that can accurately simulate the fluid flow analysis around the ship’s hull. With Simcenter Star CCM+, an engineer can study the hull resistance, hydrodynamic performance, and other related parameters to optimize the ship’s design. It helps to reduce fuel consumption and enhance the overall performance of the ship.

    Marine Propulsion System Optimization

    Simcenter Amesim is a powerful system simulation tool that can simulate, model, and optimize marine propulsion systems. It covers all aspects of the propulsion system, including engines, transmissions, shafts, and propellers. The simulation results can be used to evaluate and improve the performance of the marine propulsion system, such as fuel economy, power, and emissions. It helps an engineer to identify the best engine, transmission, and propeller options to optimize system performance and meet the necessary requirements.

    Finite Element Analysis

    Finite element analysis (FEA) is a widely used method for stress analysis and predicting the structural behavior of marine designs. Simcenter Nastran is a highly accurate and reliable FEA tool that helps marine engineers to simulate and analyze the stress, vibration, and dynamic behavior of ships, offshore platforms, and other marine structures. It helps to identify the critical areas of the structure, predict fatigue life, and optimize structural designs.

    Structural Optimization

    Structural optimization is a crucial task in the Marine & Offshore industry to reduce the weight of the structure and improve the reliability and safety of the design. Simcenter 3D is a powerful tool that helps engineers to optimize the structural design by using topology optimization, which can create the best shape and distribution of the structure with the given constraints. It also includes manufacturing constraints, such as casting, forging, or welding. The optimized design reduces the material cost, enhances the structural performance, and provides a better product to the market.

     

    Ship hull optimization

    This product is used to optimize the ship hull structure in order to increase efficiency, reduce fuel consumption and reduce emissions. It allows engineers to make changes to the hull design and to simulate the fluid flow around the ship. By using Simcenter FloEFD, designers can identify areas of high resistance and drag and make modifications to the hull geometry to reduce these effects. Additionally, it is possible to simulate the effect of different operating conditions on the hull to ensure the best possible design.

    Marine propeller simulation

    Simulating the performance of marine propellers and optimizing their design is an important aspect of marine engineering. With Simcenter STAR-CCM+, it is possible to create highly accurate simulations of fluid flow around the propeller blades, including the effects of cavitation and turbulent flow. By analyzing the data obtained from these simulations, designers can identify areas of inefficiency and make modifications to the propeller design to improve its performance.

    Dynamic positioning control

    Dynamic positioning (DP) is used to keep ships and other vessels in a fixed position without the need for anchors. Simcenter Amesim allows engineers to simulate the performance of DP systems, including the effects of wind, waves and currents.
