Fluid analysis software for gear pumps, 'Simerics MP+'.
Simulate the flow characteristics of positive displacement pumps such as gear pumps and vane pumps! A CFD software specialized for pumps that other CFD software struggles with!
Simerics MP+ is a fluid simulation tool designed to calculate the transient characteristics of various volumetric pumps, compressors, and valves. It is developed based on the thermal fluid simulation tool Simerics MP and utilizes all the features of Simerics MP. 【The following fluid analyses are possible】 ■ Free surface flow ■ Flow considering the compressibility of air contained in liquids ■ Pressure pulsations and water hammer effects ■ Coupling of pump flow with the rigid body motion of valves and cam rings ■ Flow in low to medium vacuum conditions ■ Compressible flow (subsonic) ■ Cavitation ■ Time variation of flow field (velocity vectors, pressure), flow rate, fluid forces, and torque The greatest strength is the ability to automatically create meshes even for clearances in the µm range, which is difficult with other general-purpose fluid analysis software!! Recently, there has been an increase in achievements with oil pumps for automobiles and construction machinery, such as vane pumps for power steering and CVTs, and trochoidal pumps for engine lubrication. *There is a lot of information that cannot be posted online. Particularly, we encourage you to see the actual mesh creation and movement through a demo presentation!
basic information
(1) Automatic generation of calculation meshes! Even for complex flow paths, automatic generation of calculation meshes is possible with simple button operations. Additionally, for pump chambers that involve rotation/volume changes, high-precision calculation meshes can be automatically generated using a dedicated mesh creation module. It is possible to automatically execute the movement/rotation/deformation of high-precision meshes without tedious tasks. (2) Fluid analysis of various gear pumps is possible! Simerics MP+ has mesh creation capabilities for various pumps, including different gear pumps, making it easy to perform calculations for a wide range of pumps. It also has a mesh creation function for valves, allowing for calculations of flow paths that include valves, and coupled analysis is also possible. (3) More accurate modeling of aeration/cavitation! It includes a high-precision cavitation model, making it possible to predict the expansion of non-condensable gases and the generation of vapor due to cavitation. (4) Calculation of free surface flow It is now possible to analyze the oil scraping inside the gearbox and the oil suction from the oil pan during pump startup.

Applications/Examples of results
Simerics MP+ is primarily used by automobile manufacturers and automotive-related parts manufacturers in Japan, with numerous achievements in oil pumps used in automotive ATs and CVTs, as well as engine oil pumps. Additionally, it has a wide range of implementation results not only in the automotive industry but also globally. Examples of achievements worldwide by the developer can be found at: http://www.simerics.com/testimonials/ In addition to overseas use, there are many cases where companies in Japan that have already purchased multiple fluid analysis software have chosen to buy it for analyzing volumetric pumps such as gear pumps and vane pumps, aiming for ease of use, improved accuracy, and reduced calculation time. Unlike other general-purpose fluid analysis software, it has no unique know-how or peculiar settings, making it user-friendly and easy for designers and practitioners to use immediately, and its clear GUI has received high praise.
