挑战
该案例研究围绕使用 TCFD® 和 CAESES® 软件优化轴流风扇的设计。主要挑战是开发一种新型高效风扇或改进现有风扇的参数。现有轴流风机具体参数为直径280毫米，转速3000转，最大功率100瓦，最大压力410帕，最大风量1100立方米/小时，峰值效率69%。该研究旨在最大限度地提高风机在 576 m3/h 至 1296 m3/h 流量范围内的效率，并增加空气流量。该挑战还涉及通过连接 TCFD® 和 CAESES® 这两个软件包来创建智能高效的涡轮机械设计优化工作流程。
关于客户
本案例研究中没有明确提及客户。然而，可以推断该客户是轴流风机的制造商或设计者，寻求提高其产品的效率和风量能力。该客户可能从事涡轮机械行业，其中风扇、涡轮机和其他旋转机械的设计和优化至关重要。他们需要一个不仅能增强产品性能，还能与现有工作流程无缝集成的解决方案。客户重视效率、生产力以及最大限度地利用其可用硬件资源的能力。
解决方案
该解决方案涉及使用 CAESES® 创建风扇几何形状，它提供了一个 CAD 环境，可实现稳健且简单的几何变化、高效参数化和模拟就绪导出。在 TCFD® 中创建导出几何体的 CFD 模拟设置模板，并将其返回到 CAESES® 软件连接器中。 CAESES® 中预设了优化流程，并且使用 TCFD® 自动处理和模拟每个几何变化。创建轴流风扇流动域是为了满足 CFD 要求，并且几何形状分为转子域和定子域。优化过程涉及一组复杂的任务，包括全局敏感性分析 (Sobol) 和从全局分析获得的最佳设计附近的局部分析 (TSearch)。目标函数定义为从 TCFD® 导入的所有六个模拟点的效率总和。

Hydro One Leads the Way In Smart Meter Development
In 2010, Ontario’s energy board mandated that time-of-use (TOU) pricing for consumers be available for all consumers on a regulated price plan. To meet this requirement, Hydro One needed to quickly deploy a smart meter and intelligent communications network solution to meet the provincial government’s requirement at a low cost. The network needed to cover Hydro One’s expansive service territory, which has a land mass twice the size of Texas, and its customers live in a mix of urban, rural, and remote areas, some places only accessible by air, rail, boat or snowmobile. Most importantly, the network needed to enable future enterprise-wide business efficiencies, modernization of distribution infrastructure and enhanced customer service. To meet these needs, Hydro One conceptualized an end-to-end solution leveraging open standards and Internet Protocols (IP) at all communication levels. The utility drew upon industry leaders like Trilliant to realize this vision.

Selling more with Whirlpool
Whirlpool wanted to add connectivity to appliances and transform the company's relationship with customers. Traditionally, Whirlpool interaction with customers was limited to purchases made once every ten years. Connected washer and dryers provide exciting new features like remote management of start times and inter-machine communication.

SAS® Analytics for IoT: Smart Grid
Companies face falling revenues, rising infrastructure costs, and increasing risk of outages caused by inconsistent energy production from renewable sources. Less money is coming in as more people and organizations take steps to curb their energy use. Utilities are paying more to maintain and build infrastructure due to increasing complexity, resulting from the rising number of intermittent and variable renewable energy sources connected in the distribution grid.

Enel Secures Italian Power Generation Network
Electric energy operators around the world are working to increase the reliability and cyber resiliency of their systems. This includes Enel, a global power company that manages and monitors the Italian power grid. This grid:• Serves 31 million customers• Has a net installed energy capacity exceeding 31 gigawatts• Includes more than 500 power generation plants,including hydroelectric, thermoelectric, and wind• Is managed and monitored by Enel 24/7/365• Is operated by Terna, the Italian Transmission System Operator (TSO)Enel is responsible for the availability of the grid’s underlying ICS and industrial network. It also manages Regional Control Centers and Interconnection Centers which connect with the TSO. The TSO manages the flow of energy to the grid plus controls and remotely regulates the power generation of power plants, increasing and decreasing power production as required. The complex system of interaction and cooperation between Enel and the TSO has strong security implications as well as operational and business challenges.

IoT based Energy Quality Availability Monitoring Solution
There were several challenges faced:Since this data would be in the public domain, accuracy and authenticity of this data were of paramount importance. It should be able to withstand scrutiny.It is challenging to build an appliance that can withstand a wide range of voltage fluctuations from as low at 90v to as high as 320v. Since the device would be installed in remote locations, its resilience was of paramount importance.The device would have to deal with poor network coverage and have the ability to store and re-transmit data if networks were not available, which is often the case in rural India. The device could store up to 30 days of data.The platform that deals with the data should be readily available and highly reliable and never lose a packet of data.
