Thread: Must see animation

As the engine ran in slow motion, Ansys showed:

Von-Mises stress (3 dimensional stress) as colour contours and vectors, of the various components of the engine (from the crankshaft, down to contact stresses between the pintle and seat of the injectors)

temperature as colour contours, of the engine components

fluid, pressure as colour contours and velocity as vectors, in the inlet and exhaust manifolds, cylinder and combustion chamber

fuel flow inside the injectors and atomisation and combustion in the cylinder and combustion chamber

acoustic analysis of sound from the engine

And more that I can't recall now.

It was the most impressive technical video I have seen.

have you got a link for this video, it has to be floating around the net somewhere.

No, I only saw it that one time, played on a vcr.

Here is a link to the company web site http://www.orbeng.com.au
