Fluid analysis software for vane pumps, 'Simerics MP+'.
Simulate the flow characteristics of volumetric pumps such as vane pumps! A CFD software specialized for pumps that other CFD software struggles with!
PumpLinx 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 pulsation 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 for clearances in the µm range, which is difficult with other general-purpose fluid analysis software!! Recently, there has been an increase in applications for automotive and construction machinery oil pumps, with examples such as vane pumps for power steering and CVTs, and trochoidal pumps for engine lubrication becoming more common. *There is a lot of information that cannot be posted online. In particular, we encourage you to see the actual mesh creation and movement in a demonstration!
