[November 8 (Thursday) November 9 (Friday) Yokohama] Seminar on Simulation Tools

Equipped with features to solve two-phase flow! Rankine thermoelectric system.

"GT-SUITE" is a system-level CAE tool for analyzing waste heat recovery systems. Not only can it model waste heat systems based on the principles of the Rankine cycle, but it can also model systems that use thermoelectric materials to directly convert temperature differences into electricity. The ability to integrate waste heat subsystem models into larger vehicle system models allows for the analysis and optimization of the overall energy efficiency of the system while operating under standard unsteady conditions. 【Features】 ■ Model all components of WHR systems individually or as a complete system (Rankine or thermoelectric) ■ Detailed models of heat exchangers solved spatially ■ REFPROP properties for single and mixed refrigerants ■ Robust solver based on the Navier-Stokes equations ■ Two-phase systems for subcritical and supercritical conditions *For more details, please refer to the PDF document or feel free to contact us.

General-purpose CFD enters the era of open source. From vendor-driven to user-driven CFD tools.

"iconCFD" is a program developed based on OpenFOAM(R). It has the capability for automatic generation of analysis models, exhibits high convergence, and fixes known bugs in OpenFOAM. Additionally, improvements have been made with consideration for ease of use as a tool. OpenFOAM is a collection of computational codes for physical fields that is trademarked by OpenCFD, a subsidiary of ESI Group. It is released as open-source code under the GPL license, written in C++. Its functionalities range widely from mesh creation to solvers for fluid dynamics, heat transfer, molecular dynamics, electromagnetics, and solid stress analysis, as well as result processing and visualization. CAE simulations can be realized through code development that matches user needs in design processes, physical models, required accuracy, and automation processes. 【Features】 ■ Achieves large-scale calculations at low cost ■ Custom provision at the source level ■ High-precision analysis using LES ■ Rich functionality ■ Application-oriented development *For more details, please download the PDF or feel free to contact us.

In the field of food and health food research and development, an increasing number of companies are facing the following challenges: - Difficulty in exploring new functional materials and differentiation themes, leading to a depletion of research topics. - While they are collecting information from conferences and papers, they struggle to translate this into research themes directly related to their products. - They remain limited to competing similar products and follow-up projects, failing to establish uniqueness. - Although there are seeds of ideas, they struggle to elevate them to scientific hypotheses and build the necessary foundations for internal approval. Behind this lies a "wall of execution" that cannot be overcome by traditional information gathering and research processes. In this webinar, we will introduce a new R&D approach to break through these challenges. It is a next-generation research and development scheme that combines AI-driven hypothesis generation, which has achieved results in drug discovery, with scientific hypothesis verification by a food human trial CRO. This will allow for the transformation of vague ideas into scientifically verifiable projects, simultaneously achieving the construction of persuasive foundations for upper management and differentiation development.

Fujikohsuhou Industrial Co., Ltd. will hold an online seminar titled "Tips for Setting Laser Hardening Conditions" on July 20, 2025 (Wednesday). In laser hardening, factors such as output and speed are related to the quality of hardening. We will explain how output and speed are connected to quality factors. This seminar is aimed at those who are looking to start utilizing laser hardening. 【Recommended for】 ■ Those who want to learn about methods for setting laser hardening conditions ■ Those who want to obtain technical information about laser hardening

Take the 'first step' in DX talent development in Fukuoka. We will hold a free seminar where you can learn reskilling strategies that can be applied in the field through case studies and experiences! 'I've become responsible for DX, but I don't know where to start.' This is a participatory seminar aimed at representatives from small and medium-sized enterprises in Fukuoka City, Fukuoka Prefecture, where you can learn the 'first steps' in DX talent development and implementation support. While introducing case studies of representative DX tools such as Power Automate and Power BI, you will experience hands-on sessions with Copilot, allowing you to grasp practical small-start methods that can be implemented on-site. The content also includes specific success stories from the Fukuoka region, along with tips for promoting understanding and advancement within your organization.
