Increasing demand for different types of valves and constantly evolving technologies are influencing valve manufacturers to seek new ways of building innovative valves at low costs.
Computer simulation is being adopted by all large manufacturing companies due to its advantages ― from reducing the number of physical prototypes in product design to infinite testing of changes and scenarios with massive cost reductions and increased efficiency. Despite these advantages, simulation was inaccessible to SMB’s due to its exorbitant pricing and high upfront investment required for hardware and professional training.
Since 2013, German company SimScale has empowered SMEs and large companies to use the powerful hardware-free, browser-based simulation software with hundreds of free learning resources to train employees in a shorter time and start using 3D simulation for designing and developing products.
The SimScale platform is suitable for many applications and industries. SimScale can be used to evaluate performance characteristics of a valve such as its pressure drop, the flow coefficient, cavitation risk areas, pressure and temperature distribution, stiffness and for CAD based predictions.
SimScale has created a pricing model that allows users to pay per usage, thereby making the adoption of simulation risk-free and flexible.
