Examination of Overflow position

Repeat "Design --> Simulation -> Design Change" process in order to find the optimum desgining by taking advantage of one of ADSTEFAN features, "High speed analysis." In this case, Fluid flow analysis is conducted on the initial designing due to find optimum overflow positions. From the simulation results, parts filled in last with reminding air are confirmed.

Evaluation of the simulation result : Situation of the reminding air when injection is completed. (Blue shows the reminding air)
* At least 4 overflows (shown in red arrow) are required.
Filling is not adequate at the left side.

* Overflows are still required at the same positions but
filling at the left side is improved.

 

Why choose us!

Every product development process benefits from CAE and simulation. Simulation can be used to reinforce decision-making, reduce prototypes, and optimise performance and efficiency, overall getting products to market faster and cheaper. But simulation driven design is very hard. CAE tools are often cumbersome, require expert users and huge amounts of data. Results take time, computational effort and are still subject to uncertainty and interpretation.

The services offered by CAE Technology will adapt modelling and simulation to your industry and engineering team, not the other way around.
