挑战
RAETECH Corporation 是一家专门从事汽车设计和分析、专注于赛车领域的公司，参与了从设计和分析阶段到原型和成品测试的项目。他们的经验几乎涉及所有类型的汽车零部件和系统。他们的结构分析程序通常包括线性、非线性和疲劳分析，并且在适当的情况下还利用计算流体动力学 (CFD)，特别是在发动机部件设计和 A 到 B 比较中。他们坚信设计和分析阶段紧密结合，然后正确验证真实的物理部件。然而，他们在通过 CATIA V4 导入器或 Solidworks 插件导入数据以及使用 Tetra 创建实体和曲面网格方面面临挑战。

解决方案
RAETECH Corporation 采用 ANSYS ICEM CFD 解决方案来克服挑战。他们使用CATIA V4导入器和ANSYS提供的Solidworks插件导入曲面，然后在ANSYS ICEM CFD中构建边界几何体。 CATIA V4 阅读器被认为是他们见过的最好的 CATIA V4 转换器，并且直接的 Solidworks 插件也运行得完美无缺。他们使用 Tetra 创建了实体和表面网格，Tetra 可以轻松创建在所有接触或接近接触表面上连续的三角形网格。 ANSYS ICEM CFD 八叉树网格划分方法无需清理除最脏几何体之外的所有几何体，即可快速创建良好的网格。然后将结构网格导出到 ANSYS，将 CFD 网格导出到 ANSYS CFX。

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.
