Prerequisites
Basic knowledge of Ansys Mechanical, Basic knowledge of Ansys Twin Builder
Software used
Ansys Mechanical, Ansys Twin Builder, Model Reduction inside Ansys

- Parametric model order reduction with change in boundary conditions
- “Model Reduction inside ANSYS” license free for three months
Description
Heat is generated in virtually all technical processes. For example, the integration density in modern electronic systems is so high that their performance is limited by cooling. Highly integrated batteries in electric vehicles also use operation-dependent cooling. The characteristics of electrical machines are also determined by heat loss. These effects can be determined in Ansys Mechanical using a temperature field analysis. However, the key to correctly calculating the entire system is a system simulation that combines compact thermal models with mechanical, electrical, or fluidic components.
Using industry-relevant examples, this training course will demonstrate the groundbreaking advantages of compact thermal models and introduce the necessary software tools and work steps. This training is aimed at project simulation engineers who want to run transient thermal simulations more efficiently with Ansys Mechanical or who want to study transient thermal effects in individual components or component groups within the framework of a system simulation. After the training, you will receive a free license for three months of “Model Reduction inside Ansys".
