Analysis of Existing Machines
Our expertise and analytical capabilities will help you evaluate performance, carry out machine benchmarking and simulate design and various off-design operation modes. To obtain the geometry of existing machine we can work with different sources of information – 2D drawings, 3D CAD solid models and laser scanned data.
A number of performance maps can be generated for different operating conditions so that we can clearly perform performance evaluation.
In some cases, like compressor characteristics analysis, for example, we will help you to find the limits of stable operation and discover potentially weak elements.
- Different types of working fluids (ideal and real gases, gas mixtures, steam) are available for analysis as well as for the transition to other speed and/or other flow rate
- Existing machine analysis can be performed for different cycles to find out the most effective configuration.
- Different loading conditions- startup and shut down - can also be simulated to evaluate effect of transients on turbine operation.
Within the framework of analysis tasks, it is also reasonable to check the impact of sealing types and clearances, etc., on machine performance and effectiveness.
SoftInWay’s objective is to first assist you in developing your strategy on how to identify and maintain optimal machine characteristics and then help you execute.
Simulation analysis does not require time-consuming and costly experiments on real machines, and reliability of the results is very high.
