Automobile Research | Electric Vehicles | Product Concept R04 | Battery Thermal Management System (BTMS) | Stage XXV Achieved | R&D September 2024 From the current study, the performance of different nanofluids in response to temperature fluctuations (ranging from 2°C to 18°C) reveals that certain nanofluids exhibit superior thermal management across the entire range. Nanofluids like Water+Cu and Water+Au show consistently high heating and cooling efficiencies, particularly at extreme temperatures (2°C and 18°C), indicating that they are more adept at handling significant temperature swings. In contrast, nanofluids such as Water+Al2O3 and Water+Ag demonstrate more stable performance, with less dramatic changes in efficiency across the fluctuation spectrum. This suggests that while some nanofluids perform well across the entire temperature range, others maintain stability but may not optimize performance under extreme fluctuations. #ansys #simulation #cae #thisiswhatwedo

Aeronautics Research | Subsonic Aircraft | Product Concept R03 | Feature on Wing Flap to Enhance Aerodynamic Efficiency | Stage XLIV Achieved | R&D September 2024 The analysis of different tail geometries reveals varying efficiencies. The design with the full aerodynamic tail feature initially offers the highest efficiency but decreases as the flap angle increases, likely due to changing airflow dynamics. The design with the partial aerodynamic tail feature performs well at lower flap angles but also shows a decline with increasing flap angle, suggesting moderate aerodynamic benefits. The design with the fillet edge tail feature starts with competitive efficiency but declines more sharply, possibly due to increased drag. Overall, the full aerodynamic tail design demonstrates the best initial performance, highlighting the importance of optimal tail design for enhanced aircraft efficiency. #ansys #simulation #cae #thisiswhatwedo

Automobile Research | Electric Vehicles | Product Concept R04 | Battery Thermal Management System (BTMS) | Stage XXIV Achieved | R&D August 2024 Based on the current study, nanofluids with Au nanoparticles demonstrate superior performance in heating and cooling applications across a broad range of temperature fluctuations, from 2°C to 18°C. This enhanced performance can be attributed to the unique thermal and chemical properties of gold nanoparticles. Gold exhibits excellent thermal conductivity and stability, allowing it to efficiently transfer heat and adapt to temperature variations. Additionally, Au nanoparticles may have a more favorable interaction with the base fluid, reducing thermal resistance and enhancing overall heat transfer. In contrast, nanofluids with Al₂O₃ and Cu nanoparticles, while stable, show less adaptability to extreme temperature changes, likely due to their lower thermal conductivity and higher tendency for particle aggregation, which can impede effective heat transfer. #ansys #simulation #cae #thisiswhatwedo

Aeronautics Research | Subsonic Aircraft | Product Concept R03 | Feature on Wing Flap to Enhance Aerodynamic Efficiency | Stage XLIII Achieved | R&D August 2024 The fillet edge tail design of the feature attached to the wing demonstrates considerable variability in performance, reflecting a pronounced sensitivity to variations in flight parameters. This variability suggests that the aerodynamic effectiveness of this tail design is highly contingent on specific operational conditions, leading to inconsistent performance outcomes. Such sensitivity indicates potential challenges in achieving reliable and stable efficiency across diverse flight regimes. Future research should prioritize the optimization of this fillet edge tail design to address these performance fluctuations and enhance its aerodynamic stability and effectiveness under a wider range of flight conditions. #ansys #simulation #cae #thisiswhatwedo

Aeronautics Research | Subsonic Aircraft | Product Concept R03 | Feature on Wing Flap to Enhance Aerodynamic Efficiency | Stage XLII Achieved | R&D July 2024 The stability analysis of subsonic aircraft with varying tailed feature configurations at higher angles of attack reveals that the full aerodynamic tailed feature maintains consistent performance across both alpha and beta angles, indicating its reliable aerodynamic behavior. The partial aerodynamic tailed feature shows optimal efficiency up to an alpha of 1 and performs best at lower beta angles, suggesting that smaller flap deflections favor its design. In contrast, the fillet edge tailed feature displays an efficiency peak at alpha=2, beyond which its performance declines, and demonstrates better stability at higher beta angles. These results suggest that the full aerodynamic tailed feature's consistent surface area provides stable airflow management, the partial aerodynamic tailed feature's design minimizes drag at lower flap deflections, and the fillet edge tailed feature's geometry might induce beneficial vortices at specific angles, enhancing lift temporarily before increased drag reduces efficiency. #ansys #simulation #cae #thisiswhatwedo
