A multiscale approach to virtually render fluid dynamics on overall vehicle level

Abstract

To exploit further advancement of the modern vehicle development, it is necessary to gather information about physical as well as chemical even chains quickly and economically. In order to optimize the overall development process, it is mandatory to adjust conception of design, material and package relevant components according to the expected strains. Avoidance or prevention of corrosion on the overall vehicle validation development process is of remarkable customer interest. Whether or not a material has a tendency of corrosion is determined rather late in the experimental stage, due to complex relations of flow paths, mechanical strains, drying flow and the chemical consistency of the strained resources. Any component modification would lead to higher expenses. Apart from test rigs or test tracks, numerical load simulation is establishing in all aspects of the development process.
