Many industries use machines with rotating components

• Power generation, transportation, electronics, chemical processing

Comprehensive design of rotating components, using high-fidelity tools, is essential to achieve machine reliability, stable range of operation, low noise at desired speeds and loads etc.

• Turbomachinery, mixers, disk drives, generators etc.

ANSYS has expanded its rotordynamics capability to offer integrated solutions to all such industries and machine types

Introduction

Complete rotordynamics analysis with ANSYS, enabled by….

• CAD import and automatic meshing

• Library of elements• All analysis types (including

pre-stress)• Dedicated post-processing• Multi-spool dynamics

simulation• Direct connection to bearing

codes• Account for the flexibility of

the supporting structure and/or the disks

• Connect directly to other ANSYS tools via Workbench (DesignXplorer)
