Ansys SpaceClaim overview

What is Ansys SpaceClaim?

Ansys is an engineering simulation and 3D design software that can be utilized by business across several industry segments, including automotive, aerospace, construction, energy, healthcare, military, chemical processing, and consumer goods. It helps organizations manage processes related to workflow automation, predictive analysis, simulation visualization, application customization, and product testing.

Using Ansys’ multiphysics simulation methodology, engineers can combine thermal, fluid, electromagnetic, structural, and other physics components to evaluate real-world interactions between complex products. The EnSight platform allows team members to analyse, visualize, and collaborate on post-processing simulation operations. The Exalto tool lets staff members predict electromagnetic coupling effects in integrated circuits (ICs) during the signoff phase. The electronics module enables developers to simulate and analyze temperature and vibration effects across component, circuit, and system designs.

Ansys comes with an API, which allows businesses to integrate the platform with several third-party solutions. With the optical simulation tool employees can simulate and evaluate systems’ optical performance and final illumination effect. It also lets users create 3D geometric designs for rotating machinery components, such as pumps, fans, compressors, turbines, turbochargers, and blowers.
