Advanced Simulation of Motorsport Fuel Cell Dynamics
In fluid dynamics, sloshing refers to the movement of fluid inside a solid object, which can also be under motion. Some examples of this application are the fuel cell (tank) of racing cars (like in Formula 1 cars) [1] and the propellant slosh in spacecraft tanks and rockets [2]. In these applications, the fluid sloshing […]
Multipoint Adjoint Topology Optimisation for Automotive HVAC System
In the previous post about multipoint adjoint optimisation I showed the concept and process of our recent developments in this field on a very simple demonstration case (Definitely read this before you continue!). We now have received permission by our partner Volkswagen AG to show the original case that sparked this development. I will introduce […]

Simulating Transient Flow in a Closing Butterfly Valve
How do flow patterns and forces in a butterfly valve change during transient operation? This might be a question that you, as an engineer, need to answer during your design and operation of a valve. There are many questions that need to be answered to obtain a complete picture of the valve’s performance characteristics, but […]
