挑战
Kampmann GmbH 是供暖、制冷、空调和集成楼宇自动化领域的领先专家,面临着减少物理原型并通过虚拟开发方法早期了解系统性能的挑战。该公司的旗舰产品 KaTherm HK(沟槽装置)和 KaDeck(供暖和制冷天花板系统)必须根据每个客户和个人环境的需求进行定制。这通常需要单独的设计调整,并且必须在现场进行测试和批准。在引入仿真之前,空调系统是经过物理测试的,这导致开发时间更长,需要付出更大的努力。我们面临的挑战是找到一种解决方案,能够在生产前对功能和特殊要求进行早期测试,从而减少对物理原型的需求并缩短开发周期。
关于客户
Kampmann GmbH 是国际领先的供暖、制冷、空调和集成楼宇自动化专家。该公司在全球 14 个地点拥有 720 多名员工。传统上,坎普曼的专业知识是批量生产,提供广泛的系统变体和基于项目和单独定制的有吸引力的解决方案。该公司的旗舰产品是 KaTherm HK(沟槽装置)和 KaDeck(供暖和制冷天花板系统)。该公司以其能够根据每个客户和个人环境的需求定制产品的能力而自豪。
解决方案
Kampmann 采用了使用 Altair HyperWorks® 软件套件的虚拟开发流程,特别是 AcuSolve®(CFD 求解器); OptiStruct®,该套件的有限元求解器和优化工具; HyperMesh® 用于建模和网格划分任务。对于工厂控制设计,Kampmann 考虑了solidThinking Activate®,这是一种用于控制系统的绘图软件。这种模拟方法使坎普曼工程师能够深入了解系统的内部过程,而这些过程很难通过物理测试来研究。通过模拟,可以测试多种变体并优化系统,从而可以为每个客户设计完美的解决方案。经过最终的物理测试后,设计可以得到客户现场的认可。在最近优化沟槽加热/冷却系统 Katherm HK 的项目中,仿真的使用还帮助 Kampmann 工程师将测试时间缩短了整整一周。

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.
