Case Study: TEGnology achieves faster thermal design and validated digital twin development with SimScale

TEGnology reduces physical prototyping with SimScale to build a validated digital twin

The customer, TEGnology, faced the challenge of designing a maintenance-free wireless sensor that harvests energy from industrial waste heat. As a lean startup, they required high-end thermal simulation capabilities to optimize their design but lacked the budget for on-premise HPC hardware. They turned to the vendor, SimScale, and its cloud-native thermal analysis software to build an accurate digital twin of their product.

Using SimScale, TEGnology calibrated their digital twin model by tuning thermal interface parameters to match lab data, which was critical for predicting power output accurately. This solution allowed them to significantly reduce physical prototyping costs and test design iterations virtually. The vendor's platform enabled TEGnology to validate feasibility for specific customer use cases prior to deployment, transforming their new product development process and saving significant amounts on prototyping.
