ANSYS JOINS INITIATIVE TO ENABLE SUSTAINABLE AND RESILIENT ENERGY APPLICATIONS

Ansys is bringing the power of digital twins to PowerizeD, a European initiative that focuses on the digitalization of power electronics and decarbonization.

ANSYS JOINS INITIATIVE TO ENABLE SUSTAINABLE AND RESILIENT ENERGY APPLICATIONS

Ansys has joined the European research initiative, PowerizeD, which focuses on boosting the intelligence of power electronics to make them more efficient. As part of the initiative, Ansys will demonstrate the power of digital twins through new workflows that can increase efficiency, reduce development costs, and contribute to decarbonization efforts.

The project, initiated and coordinated by longtime Ansys customer Infineon Technologies AG (Infineon), is expected to contribute to European decarbonization and climate protection by improving the sustainability and resilience of the European energy chain.

Reliability issues in power electronics can often be traced back to thermal stress, which can be predicted and then mitigated via new compact digital twin workflows. These workflows are based on Ansys® Twin Builder™ and Ansys® optiSLang™, relying on metamodels built with Ansys® Fluent®, Ansys® Mechanical™, Ansys® Sherlock™, and Ansys® Electronics Desktop™. Using this approach with PowerizeD, Ansys will demonstrate how development time and costs can be saved by eliminating unnecessary prototypes and testing, while extending the useful life cycle of power electronics devices.

The immediate PowerizeD project objectives include:
  • Reduction of power loss in power conversion by 25 percent
  • Extension of the service lives of devices and systems by 30 percent
  • Reduction of chip size by at least 10 percent
  • Shortening development times by a challenging 50 percent
