This presentation will demonstrate recent advances in modeling pumps and valves for flow dynamics and cavitation. It will explain how companies use computational fluid dynamics (CFD) to predict performance, gain product insight, and save time and money. During the GlobalSpec Fluid Power and Fluid Handling online event, Samuel Lowry will present examples of the application of CFD for virtual testing and walk attendees through a complete modeling process, start-to-finish, using the CFD tool PumpLinx®.

The Simerics educational session will be one of several presentations in the day’s agenda that covers leading trends in the Fluid Power and Fluid Handling industry.

•When: Wednesday, November 17, 2010 at 2:00pm Eastern Time

•What: CFD Simulation: Virtual Testing of Pumps, Valves, and Systems

•Where: Online - www.globalspec.com/events
