Innovation is essential in today’s volatile and sustainability-focused energy industry, and small to medium-sized energy businesses are uniquely suited for this role. Why? They’re typically less weighed down by overly-complex organizational structures and outdated legacy software systems. Regardless of the energy industry subsegment, your small or medium-sized business can fuel innovation by empowering engineers with energy simulation software.
Whether your goal is more effective R&D or reducing asset emissions, here are four ways simulation software improves small and medium-sized energy businesses.
Knowledge workers can accelerate optimization in engineering design
With simulation software, your engineers will gain access to a digital twin of your real-world or planned energy assets, systems or processes. This digital replica fuels optimization in engineering design and remains in sync as it evolves with added data. The digital twin will become the primary tool for defining and selecting the best opportunities to improve designs, enhance sustainability and reduce costs.
Integrated software streamlines R&D processes
Engineers can use a single integrated software environment that includes CAD, automated meshing, multi-physics computational fluid dynamics (CFD) software and design exploration technology. These combined, cloud-powered engineering simulation solutions help engineering teams accelerate research, development and design through modeling and gaining a better understanding of system complexity. Because new designs validated through simulation have a much higher chance of performing as expected during physical testing, time-consuming and costly prototyping processes are shortened or eliminated. As a result, your business can deploy reliable new energy assets and systems in faster timeframes.
