关于客户
Pranav Vikas (India) Private Limited (PVL) 是印度最大、最多元化的热交换器制造商之一,拥有二十多年的经验。 PVL 在印度设有三个运营地点,每个地点都专注于特定的产品线和细分市场。该公司是印度唯一一家完全集成的冷凝器制造商,拥有自己最先进的微管设施。 PVL 为乘用车、商用车和越野车领域的全球领先原始设备制造商 (OEM) 提供服务。他们的一些主要客户包括 Mahindra 和 Mahindra、Bajaj Auto Ltd.、塔塔汽车、Sanden Vikas/Maruti Suzuki、通用汽车、Hindustan Motors、本田、川崎、Hero MotoCorp、VE Commercial Vehicles Ltd.、Escorts、海尔、Videocon、科勒和伯格斯特罗姆。
挑战
Pranav Vikas (India) Private Limited (PVL) 是印度领先的热交换器制造商,在制造过程中面临着多项挑战。快速变化的汽车市场和客户要求需要使用轻质材料来制造部件,以保持紧凑的产品尺寸。这需要对每种新材料进行彻底的测试和实施以优化产品,推动团队创新和开发新的制造工艺和工程技术。此外,PVL 还必须解决现有产品的保修问题。最近的项目面临两个明显的挑战:运行了五年的型号的垫板接头上的油冷却器故障,以及需要对热交换器产品的入口/出口管道进行设计检修需要减轻重量而不引起保修故障问题。
解决方案
PVL 选择 Altair HyperWorks 作为其设计和仿真要求的合作伙伴。针对油冷却器故障问题,团队在 Altair HyperWorks 中模拟了油冷却器的道路负载和发动机振动负载条件。模拟显示,装配过程中的夹具导致油冷却器产生预应力,导致垫板接头失效。固定装置被拆除,问题得到解决。针对弯管问题,团队使用 Altair HyperMesh™ 和 Altair OptiStruct 来模拟热交换器入口/出口管道,显着减轻了产品重量。为了解决因弯曲过程中变薄和增厚而导致保修失效的问题,团队使用 Altair HyperForm™ 来弯曲管道,并测量变薄和增厚百分比。对管道所需的结构分析产生了积极的结果,使管道变得更轻,而无需担心保修失败。

Case Study
Taking Oil and Gas Exploration to the Next Level
DownUnder GeoSolutions (DUG) wanted to increase computing performance by 5 to 10 times to improve seismic processing. The solution must build on current architecture software investments without sacrificing existing software and scale computing without scaling IT infrastructure costs.
Case Study
Remote Wellhead Monitoring
Each wellhead was equipped with various sensors and meters that needed to be monitored and controlled from a central HMI, often miles away from the assets in the field. Redundant solar and wind generators were installed at each wellhead to support the electrical needs of the pumpstations, temperature meters, cameras, and cellular modules. In addition to asset management and remote control capabilities, data logging for remote surveillance and alarm notifications was a key demand from the customer. Terra Ferma’s solution needed to be power efficient, reliable, and capable of supporting high-bandwidth data-feeds. They needed a multi-link cellular connection to a central server that sustained reliable and redundant monitoring and control of flow meters, temperature sensors, power supply, and event-logging; including video and image files. This open-standard network needed to interface with the existing SCADA and proprietary network management software.

Refinery Saves Over $700,000 with Smart Wireless
One of the largest petroleum refineries in the world is equipped to refine various types of crude oil and manufacture various grades of fuel from motor gasoline to Aviation Turbine Fuel. Due to wear and tear, eight hydrogen valves in each refinery were leaking, and each cost $1800 per ton of hydrogen vented. The plant also had leakage on nearly 30 flare control hydrocarbon valves. The refinery wanted a continuous, online monitoring system that could catch leaks early, minimize hydrogen and hydrocarbon production losses, and improve safety for maintenance.
