挑战
Duco 是一家主要的海底工程设计、制造和测试机构,在改进其定制产品的计算机辅助工程 (CAE) 模型生成和分析程序方面面临着重大挑战。这些产品被称为海底“脐带缆”,是复杂的结构,旨在承受水深超过 3,000 米的碳氢化合物油田的极端压力、温度条件和恶劣天气。脐带缆将上部平台或船舶与海底设备连接起来,包括带有电力和液压的泵站。 Duco 面临的挑战是加快这些结构的分析时间,这些结构必须承受苛刻的疲劳载荷情况。他们还遇到了现有预处理器的网格质量问题,促使需要进行更改。
关于客户
Duco 是 Technip 集团的一部分,是海底工程设计、制造和测试行业的重要参与者。 Duco 工程师的任务是开发能够承受 3,000 米以上水深碳氢化合物油田极端压力和温度条件的设备。该公司主要专注于设计连接上部平台或船舶以及安装在海底的设备的海底“脐带缆”,包括带有电力和液压的泵站。
解决方案
Duco 选择 HyperMesh(HyperWorks 的预处理器)作为网格生成工具来应对挑战。 HyperMesh 使 Duco 能够直接控制网格输出并启用连续网格质量检查以确保整个模型的一致性,从而显着改进其模型。事实证明,该工具在模型生成方面比 Duco 的现有工具更快,并且允许使用模型对称性。这意味着只有脐带的一部分需要手动网格划分,然后可以在整个模型中传播。自定义脚本甚至可以促进螺旋内部布线的自动网格划分和挤压。此外,HyperWorks 对开放架构的承诺确保了输出文件与 Duco 现有的求解器代码完全兼容。

Smart Water Filtration Systems
Before working with Ayla Networks, Ozner was already using cloud connectivity to identify and solve water-filtration system malfunctions as well as to monitor filter cartridges for replacements.But, in June 2015, Ozner executives talked with Ayla about how the company might further improve its water systems with IoT technology. They liked what they heard from Ayla, but the executives needed to be sure that Ayla’s Agile IoT Platform provided the security and reliability Ozner required.

Predictive Maintenance for Industrial Chillers
For global leaders in the industrial chiller manufacturing, reliability of the entire production process is of the utmost importance. Chillers are refrigeration systems that produce ice water to provide cooling for a process or industrial application. One of those leaders sought a way to respond to asset performance issues, even before they occur. The intelligence to guarantee maximum reliability of cooling devices is embedded (pre-alarming). A pre-alarming phase means that the cooling device still works, but symptoms may appear, telling manufacturers that a failure is likely to occur in the near future. Chillers who are not internet connected at that moment, provide little insight in this pre-alarming phase.
