E-Aircraft Aerodynamics CFD

Challenges of obtaining reliable material properties for e-motor cooling design simulations and the need for quick data deployment. Simcenter STAR-CCM+ 2206, a simulation software, addresses these challenges by integrating an extensive materials database for Electromagnetics simulations. This integration enables easy access to various material data directly within the software.

The software also introduces a visualization technique that allows users to model a 2D portion of an e-motor while obtaining engineering values for the full 3D domain. This approach saves computational time without compromising result interpretation. The author draws an analogy to their own travel habits, highlighting the importance of organization and efficiency.

A practical example involving an aircraft e-motor case is presented, demonstrating how the software's features lead to faster simulations while maintaining accuracy. The ability to import materials data from other simulation software like Simcenter SPEED further streamlines the process. The article emphasizes the software's capabilities in material data integration, efficient simulations, and improved analysis for e-motor cooling design.
