Water & Liquid Management for Automotive Applications

16 April 2019 |  Hanau  |  2:00 p.m. - 5:30 p.m.

accompanying the automotive CAE Grand Challenge 2019 

OBJECTIVE

Virtual simulations of water and liquid flows in automotive applications become more and more important. A wider and deeper use is boosted by the increasing availability of HPC clusters. In addition to challenging topics such as fluid-structure interaction, higher functionality and comfort, new requirements are being defined in the area of sensor systems. In this context, the correct prediction of flow paths and soiling is particularly important for the error-free sensor operations of many active and passive safety systems.

Our simpulseday is inteded to give an overview about upcoming requirements and to show latest technologies as well as best practice examples. The interactive session will derive methodological gaps as a basis for research and the development of new simulation methods.

KEY TOPICS

• Rain Scenarios

• Vehicle Soiling

• Wheel Spray

• Water Crossing

• Fuel Sloshing

METHODS

• SPH

• CFD

• FSI

• FEM
