Simulation of a heat exchanger using SimericsMP.
Introduction to the simulation of a shell-and-tube heat exchanger, an example of thermal fluid analysis.
CFD provides a means to shorten product development periods, reduce prototyping costs, and obtain detailed data that is difficult to measure through experiments. In this article, we will introduce application examples that can assist in product development using Simerics' CAE/CFD software. Heat exchangers have various applications, including boilers, steam generators, and commonly in air conditioners, refrigerators, and automotive radiators. While it is essential to enhance heat transfer efficiency, there is also a demand for miniaturization, requiring various trial and error in the design process. However, designing requires significant time and costs for prototyping and experiments. In CFD simulations, computation time can often increase depending on the shape of the shell and the number of tubes. However, with Simerics' CFD, high-performance thermal fluid analysis can be processed quickly through large-scale parallel computing, allowing for easy and rapid acquisition of results. The interior of the shell is also modeled in detail, replicating conditions close to actual experiments. This is expected to lead to significant reductions in man-hours and costs!
