Remain Life Analysis (RLA), Thermal Management of Power Equipements using SOLIDWORKS Simulation – Sales and Technical Support in India since 1997

SOLIDWORKS Simulation has been widely used in the power industry to study efficiency of sub-systems involved in power generation. Combination of what-if scenarios can be studied with ease to understand system response and enhance reliability. Following functionalities have benefited the Power Sector immensely:

Remaining Life Analysis of Static and Rotating components such as turbine parts
Heat transfer analysis of heat exchangers, boilers, pre-heaters, headers among others.
Fluid flow analysis in cyclones, waste-heat recovery systems, chimneys, cooling towers and environmental and pollution control sub-systems
Efficiency estimation of pumps
Energy flow studies in wind power applications
Solutions to Vibration induced failure problems
Strength and stiffness calculations for pressure vessels, structural members and tanks
Earthquake Response (Seismic) Analysis of sub-systems
Creep analysis and aging calculations for high-temperature applications

Advantages of SOLIDWORKS Simulation for Power Applications

Wide range of Analysis – From components to Sub-systems to Full Systems
Kinematic Analysis using Cosmos Motion for mechanisms such Dampers and Gear-box
Life Estimation of rotating components – High Cycle Fatigue
Weight reduction of Wind-mill sub-systems such as nacelle frames, hub, extenders, support structures
Heat Transfer efficiency prediction in heat exchangers, condensers, chillers among other systems
Rotor-dynamic calculations
