SIMERICS MP is the first choice when it comes to CFD simulation of hydrogen applications!
Our CFD Software Environment is intuitive, fast and powerful. SIMERICS MP is built-up modular and functional. This leads to the opportunity to simulate difficult questions also taking complex physics into consideration at an appropriate time-frame. Moving and sliding geometries are our core competence!
SIMERICS MP is a Multi-Purpose CFD Environment. Accordingly, a lot of different areas of hydrogen applications can be simulated with our CFD code. The following list shows some possible examples as an appetize:
- FuelCell Simulation
- Water Management
- Thermal Management
- TurboCompressor at FuelCell Stack (Simulation + Optimization)
- H2 Recirculation-Valve
- Tank filling (dyamic)
- H2 & O2 Supply at FuelCell Stack
- Cooling of FuelCell Stack
- Cooling of eComponents (eMotor, Batterie, Power electronics……)
- Compression of hydrogen at reciprocating piston machine
- Dynamic Valve Optimization
- Drivetrain Gearbox oil sloshing
- …………..
We are looking forward to your specific application.
Keep cool!
The coolant system and an efficient cooling are major topics for fuelcell applications. The Stack itself must be cooled heavily to assure functionality and reliability.
Our multiphase volume-of-fluid approach (VOF) is the perfect choice to simulate your coolant system. Local boiling or the heat transfer are being calculated accurately at a really fast time.
FAST. RELIABLE. ACCURATE.
All types of valves can be simulated dynamically with SIMERICS MP. For this purpose, the equations of motion are being solved in parallel and the motion of the valve is considered by SIMERICS MP.
The optimization of your valve or your complete system can be done fast and efficient!
FAST. RELIABLE. ACCURATE.
You are already using 1D Simulation to layout and optimize your system or components! Increase your accuracy by 1D/3D Coupling between your 1D Tool and SIMERICS!
As a result of coupling, difficult dynamic flow conditions must not be transferred to 1D. Take 3D accuracy by integrating your 3D CFD in 1D. For this purpose, SIMERICS MP provides an interface to GT-SUITE for direct 1D/3D Coupling. All hydrogen topics presented above can also be coupled as part of your 1D approximation.
3D accuracy in 1D time
FAST. RELIABLE. ACCURATE.
SIMERICS MP is also first choice when it comes to the production of hydrogen. Our code is able to handle the compression of hydrogen by a dynamic reciprocating piston compressor easily. Physics like Joule-Thompson are also taken into account.
We are looking forward to your challenging project.
