Strong fluid analysis software for valves, 'SimericsMP+'.

Simulate the flow characteristics of valves and volumetric pumps! A CFD software specialized for valves and pumps that other CFD software struggles with!

SimericsMP+ is a fluid simulation tool designed to calculate the transient characteristics of various valves, volumetric pumps, and compressors. 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 Its greatest strength is the ability to automatically create meshes even for clearances on the order of micrometers, which is difficult for other general-purpose fluid analysis software! In addition to valve analysis, there has been an increasing number of achievements in 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. Especially, please see a demo for the actual mesh creation and movement!

SimericsMP+ Product Introduction Page

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 involving 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 the need for tedious tasks. (2) Fluid analysis of various valves and gear pumps is possible! SimericsMP+ has an automatic mesh creation function for various valves and pumps, making it easy to perform calculations for a variety of valves and pumps, including calculations for flow paths containing valves, and coupled analysis is also possible. (3) More accurate modeling of aeration/cavitation! It includes a high-precision cavitation model, allowing for the prediction of non-condensable gas expansion and vapor generation due to cavitation. (4) Calculation of free surface flow As a new feature, the calculation of free surface flow has become possible. It is now possible to analyze oil splashing inside the gearbox and oil suction from the oil pan during pump startup.

Applications/Examples of results

SimericsMP+ (Simerics (Simerics) MP Plus) is primarily used by automobile manufacturers and automotive-related parts manufacturers in Japan, with a proven track record in various valves, oil pumps used in automatic transmissions and continuously variable transmissions, 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/ There are numerous cases where companies that have already purchased multiple fluid analysis software domestically, as well as those overseas, have chosen to purchase it for its ease of use, improved accuracy, and reduced calculation time in the analysis of valve analysis, gear pumps, vane pumps, and other volumetric pumps. A case study on fluid analysis of vane pumps was published in KYB Corporation's KYB Technical Report No. 53 OCT. 2016. 【Prediction of Vane Pump Characteristics through CFD Analysis】 https://www.kyb.co.jp/technical_report/data/no53j/03_technology_explanation_01.pdf
