Simulations for the Defense Industry

Simulations, including CFD and FEA are extensively used in the defense industry, ranging from design of aerospace and naval vessels, to interior packaging and integrity. 

External Flows

Aerospace Vehicles

Simulations can help optimize:
  • Vehicle aerodynamics
  • Propulsion systems
​

Ship Hydrodynamics

Surface vessels and submersibles

Simulations will help in optimizing:
  • Good seakeeping designs
​

Human Comfort issues

Space vehicles and Suits

Simulations have been used to:
  • Verify performance of an air recycling system
  • Establish flow patterns and CO2 levels in a spacesuit

Electronics Thermal Management

Thermal management of electronics is critical in any aerospace application. Through CFD, we can help you optimize the electronics packaging so it meets the required standards.
