Accurately Assess Viscoelastic Fluids with Ansys Polyflow

Ansys Polyflow provides specialized tools to efficiently and accurately simulate rheological behavior. It contains high-performance solvers dedicated to polymer simulation. It is able to solve nonlinear material deformations and even has a novel meshing technique to distinguish tools from working materials. This is especially helpful for die design and can help you predict performance or reveal unexpected problems. The combination of these tools allows engineers to accurately simulate complex material behaviors and rely less on expensive and wasteful trial and error methods.

Ansys Polyflow has the following key capabilities:

• Radiation
• Viscoelastic fluid library
• Mesh superposition technique (MST)
• Inverse Die Design
• Design Exploration
• Nonlinear Contact
• Fluid-structure Interaction
• Adaptive remeshing
