Hydraulics

Whether controlling the aircraft during flight, or takeoff and landing, the critical nature of hydraulic systems demands reliability. However, engineers must balance reliability with the cost of over-design.

Flowmaster V7 Aerospace enables engineers to design and simulate early on in the design process to accurately predict system performance and strike a balance between critical needs and costly over-design.

Key Hydraulics Modelling & Simulation Features:

• Transient and Steady State analysis
• Library of hydraulics system components
• Ability to carry out frequency domain post processing
• Flow balancing module for regulating system flow rates

Scenarios where you could use Flowmaster to solve a problem:

• Identifying pressure drops and spikes throughout the system
• Modelling interactions between components and subsystems
• Investigation of more operating conditions to ensure increased safety of operation
• Simulating the transient response of actuators
