ANSYS (ANSS) Simulation Solutions Continue to Gain Momentum
ANSYS ANSS recently announced that its existing customer Vestas is extending the use of ANSYS simulation solutions across its entire product chain to create safer and sustainable power management solutions. Denmark-based Vestas is a well-known wind turbine manufacturer in the world.
Vestas is utilizing ANSYS SCADE solution with its own simulation framework to design a wind turbine control system that will deliver additional value and competitive advantages to the company’s clients as sustainability takes utmost precedence.
Vestas needed to integrate more safety features into a unique turbine system design to eliminate the need for relying on third-party programmable logic controllers or PLCs. With more safety capabilities, the new turbine design will have enough flexibility to perform safety functions in more distributed ways. With ANSYS SCADE, Vestas could create a unique system design as per its requirements.
ANSYS SCADE can support the building of a “product-agnostic variant” by considering only a few parameters, which can be easily changed from one turbine to another. As a result, users can create improved turbine designs at lower price-performance ratios for clients, added ANSYS.
