Guest Blog by ANU Rocketry: Democratisation of Space starts with university student teams

    Founded in 2018 to participate in the Australian Universities Rocket Competition (AURC), students from the Australian National University’s (ANU) Rocketry team are striving to develop a rocket capable of passing the boundary of outer space and being safely recovered by parachute upon re-entry. This lofty goal has led the team to move away from commercially available solid-fuel propelled rockets to develop their own in-house designed bipropellant liquid-fuel engine, with the help of Ansys aerothermal analysis to predict the heat flux at the space rocket’s leading edges during its hypersonic ascent phase.

    Guest Blog by CSIRO: Multiphase CFD in Minerals & Metal Processing

      Multiphase flows form the basis of many important processes in the mineral processing, metal production, energy and chemical process industries. This guest blog from CSIRO describes how CFD modelling can be used to better understand these industrial processes, improve performance and develop new novel processes. Examples given include gas-liquid, gas-solid and gas-liquid-solid flows.

      Scripting in Ansys Discovery: Automating repetitive tasks and complex workflows

        Learn from our video series on how to use scripting in Ansys Discovery to automate repetitive tasks and complex workflows across a broad range of applications. These videos aim to help Ansys Discovery users to learn the scripting interface, work through some useful examples and adapt scripting methods to their own needs.

        Heat Exchange CFD Calculations at Conflux Technology

          This blog provides highlights from Conflux’s presentation on their CFD heat exchange calculations at the 2021 Australasian Ansys Fluids user group. Learn how a mix of design engineers, simulation experts and additive manufacturing specialists are creating cutting-edge heat transfer solutions with the aim of revolutionising the heat exchange technologies used across many industries.

          Reliability Physics Analysis Tools for Implementing MIL-810G STANDARD

            In the final part of our series on using Electronics Reliability simulation tools to meet important industry standards, read how to apply Reliability Physics Analysis (RPA) in Ansys Sherlock to meet the MIL-STD-810G standard relating to environmental and lab tests approved for use by the US Department of Defence.

            Reliability Physics Analysis Tools for Implementing DO-160G STANDARD

              Read how to apply Reliability Physics Analysis (RPA) in Ansys Sherlock to the DO-160G standard which covers “Environmental Conditions and Test Procedures for Airborne Equipment” in the aerospace industry. PCBs installed in any airborne vehicles can be simulated in Ansys Sherlock to assess the vibrational and solder fatigue analysis in order to predict the life cycle/ Time-to-failure (TTF) of key components and the board itself.
