  • Simerics and PumpLinx at 2014 IFPE Show

    Simerics attended the 2014 IFPE Show   in Las Vegas, NV, March 4-8. The show itself has over 400 exhibitors, including virtually all major pump and valve manufacturers in the Fluid Power Industry.   The technical sessions also had several sessions on Fluid Power components, including a presentation on “Improving the position control performance of a Proportional spool valve, using a 3D CFD modeling [PumpLinx],” by A. Senatore, D. Buono, E. Frosina, University of Naples Federico II, M. Pavanetto, I.I. Costin, Duplomatic Oledinamica S.p.A., and M. Olivetti, OMIQ s.r.l.  That research paper shows excellent agreement between the PumpLinx predictions and experimental data.

    A complete  list of papers can be found at here and individual articles will be available via  NFPA

  • Simerics and CFturbo sign collaborative agreement

    CFturbo GmbH and Simerics Inc. have signed an agreement  to develop and maintain interfaces between the turbomachinery design software CFturbo®; and Simerics’ virtual testing CFD tools PumpLinx and Simerics MP. This collaboration will offer the user of both software packages a complete process for the design, the analysis and the simulation of turbo machineries.

  • Simerics at ASME/Bath 2013 Conference

    Simerics is a Sponsor this year at the ASME/Bath 2013 Conference in Sarasota, Florida, October 6-9, 2013. As a sponsor, Simerics will host an exhibition table for anyone interested in a first-hand introduction to PumpLinx®. In addition, Colin O’Shea from Levant Power will present a joint paper (FPMC2013-4402) during the technical sessions on the use of PumpLinx® to gain a 3x increase in efficiency in the design of their active suspension system, GenShock.

  • Levant Power optimizes GenShock with PumpLinx®

    Levant Power is developing GenShock, an active suspension system for cars and trucks that vastly improves ride, handling, and comfort. PumpLinx is at the center of their product development process, and has quantitatively helped drive the design of their technology. A joint technical paper (FPMC2013-4402 ) entitled “Analysis and Optimization of an Electrohydraulic Valve for use in a Fully-Active Vehicle Suspension through the use of Computational Fluid Dynamics,” will be presented in the optimization Session of the ASME/Bath 2013Symposium on Fluid Power & Motion Control, Tuesday, October 08, 2013 04:00 PM-05:15 PM.

    “PumpLinx has enabled our engineering team to accurately simulate performance of GenShock and its internal design features. It is delivering more accurate results for our hydraulic pump and valve modeling efforts than previous CFD packages we have utilized, saving us time and money. A couple data points: our latest generation GenShock demonstrated empirical performance within 1.7% of our un-calibrated predictions. The ability to accurately simulate design features enabled us to rapidly hone in on design enhancements, delivering a 3x improvement in system efficiency over the previous generation. ”
