Realize Your Product Promise™ Design Exploration

Cameron used goal-driven optimization to determine the clapper angle on a check valve. The engineering team applied ANSYS DesignXplorer to discover and explore a multitude of solutions; they generated trade-off plots for 50 different sizes and pressure classes of the valve. “This line of points — essentially a ﬂow performance curve for a wide range of feed conditions — was generated for each of the 50 valves, thus providing solutions in hours rather than weeks.” Christophe Avdjian Design Development Manager, Engineered Valves Cameron Inc. ANSYS design exploration tools lead the way to...

When optimizing the air intake for an FSAE car, the University of Waterloo Formula Motorsports team used DesignXplorer to quickly and eﬃciently investigate design impact on overall performance, eliminating the need for multiple prototype cycles. ANSYS DesignXplorer provides the advanced tools you need to explore and improve your design. Design of Experiments and Response Surfaces The response surface method visualizes the relationship between input and output parameters; the example is an Ansoft Designer™ model. ANSYS DesignXplorer features a variety of DOE types, from basic Latin hypercube...

DesignXplorer’s many chart options help you to understand the relationship between parameters. Six Sigma (Probabilistic) Analysis Simulation often begins with specified deterministic values for dimensions, loads, boundary conditions and material properties. In the real world, however, these values often vary due to manufacturing tolerances or the range of operating conditions. A six sigma analysis runs a series of small variations on these inputs and calculates the expected output variation. This can help you to determine whether or not your design meets robustness requirements....

Response surfaces: relationships between design parameters and design performance Our integrated toolkit means you can fully explore your design as well as manage the wealth of data it generates. Local sensitivity curves assess local sensitivities of the output parameter across the range of each input parameter. ANSYS DesignXplorer is part of our suite that delivers functionality — depth, breadth, a plethora of state-of-the-art capabilities and integrated multiphysics — providing confidence that your simulation results reflect real-world parameters. The comprehensive range of solutions...
