Case Study: Enegromash Group Enterprises achieves higher-quality hexahedral meshes and faster meshing with ANSYS ICEM CFD (ANSYS)

Enegromash Group Enterprises - Customer Case Study

Enegromash Group Enterprises, one of Russia’s largest power-equipment manufacturers and operator of its own gas-turbine plant, faced time-consuming and accuracy-sensitive mesh generation for complex turbine components (combustors, compressors, blades). They needed high-quality, CAD-integrated meshes that could be adapted parametrically for different but topologically similar models. To meet these needs they evaluated ANSYS tools, notably ANSYS ICEM CFD.

ANSYS delivered a solution using ANSYS ICEM CFD Hexa with direct CAD interfaces and reusable block-structure workflows. The ANSYS implementation produced fully hexahedral meshes that improved element quality, reduced model size and improved solution convergence; CAD integration cut geometry-transfer time and, overall, mesh creation time for typical problems was considerably decreased.
