Ansys, Concepts NREC streamline turbomachinery design

PITTSBURGH - In a move to accelerate turbomachinery design and analysis, Ansys (NASDAQ: NASDAQ:ANSS), a $29.91 billion market cap technology company with impressive gross profit margins of 92%, and Concepts NREC have announced an enhanced partnership that integrates computational fluid dynamics (CFD) software directly into the turbomachinery design process. According to InvestingPro data, Ansys maintains a strong financial health score, positioning it well for strategic partnerships. This integration allows for a seamless workflow that promises to shorten design cycles and enhance performance across a range of applications, including compressors, turbines, and pumps.

Engineers traditionally faced a time-consuming process, transferring preliminary blade designs from one software to another for detailed 3D analysis. The collaboration between Ansys and Concepts NREC addresses this bottleneck by embedding Ansys’ CFX CFD solver within Concepts NREC’s AxCent software. This allows for immediate performance evaluation within the design interface, eliminating the need for manual data transfer and potentially reducing both time and cost.

The "one-click" CFD simulation capability is designed to enable engineers to verify their turbomachinery designs more efficiently before moving into the manufacturing phase. The integrated system is ideal for optimizing designs to meet high-efficiency standards, as well as safety and environmental impact regulations.

AtmosZero, a manufacturer of innovative, zero-emission electrified steam boilers, is one example of a company benefiting from this technological advancement. Meha Setiya, Senior Aerodynamics Engineer at AtmosZero, emphasized the importance of the software integration in their development of high-temperature compressors for decarbonizing steam, noting the significant time and resource savings it will provide.

Looking to the future, Ansys and Concepts NREC plan to expand the integration’s capabilities to handle a wider range of fluids and dynamic behaviors of systems. Executives from both companies expressed their excitement about the enhanced workflow, which they believe will lead to better-performing and safer products.

The integration is indicative of Ansys’ ongoing commitment to powering innovation and helping companies close the gap between design and reality through simulation. This partnership is poised to streamline the way complex products like jet engines are developed, offering a faster route from design to prototyping.

In other recent news, Synopsys (NASDAQ:SNPS) and Ansys’ proposed $35 billion merger has been making headlines. The UK’s Competition and Markets Authority (CMA) indicated that it might accept the remedies offered by both companies, which include the divestment of specific product lines. Ansys has proposed to divest its product for power consumption analysis of digital chips, while Synopsys has offered to divest its Optical Solutions Group.

Simultaneously, Synopsys is nearing EU approval for the acquisition, following its commitment to offload two assets to alleviate competition worries. This includes the proposed sale of its subsidiary, Optical Solutions Group, to Keysight Technologies (NYSE:KEYS), and Ansys PowerArtist.

In a separate development, Ansys has teamed up with Cognata and Microsoft (NASDAQ:MSFT). The trio is integrating Ansys’ AVxcelerate Sensors simulation software into the Automated Driving Perception Hub (ADPH), a platform that provides a virtual environment for testing and validating automotive sensors used in advanced driver assistance systems and autonomous vehicles. The addition of Ansys’ AVxcelerate Sensors to the platform enhances signal strength and accuracy for radar-based systems, improving the predictive accuracy of performance evaluations.

These are among the latest advancements in the ongoing merger process and collaborations involving Synopsys and Ansys.
