STAR-CD es-ice (Expert System Internal Combustion Engines) is a meshing and analysis tool developed and used by Siemens Industry Software to simplify the meshing and analysis setup for transient in-cylinder flow and combustion calculations for reciprocating engines. The es-ice course is intended to provide users with the ability to use es-ice to model realistic engine geometries. It is an introduction to in-cylinder modeling with es-ice and STAR-CD. Upon completion of the course, users will have all of the tools needed to generate models with es-ice for their engine geometries, set up simple simulations, perform STAR-CD analyses, and post process their results.

This is a public classroom training offered at our training center in Nuremberg (over 3 consecutive days), as well as online training (over 5 consecutive morning sessions). Where / in which format it's given, you can see in our ClassFinder under location.

The training is offered under our "Guranteed to Hold" policy. It can be attended using 18 "Simcenter Training Credits" [TR-SCS-TOK] or 3600 "Learning Services Credits" [DE-LS-CDTS] per attendee.

Diese Schulung wird in deutscher Sprache gehalten. Die Kursbegleitunterlagen sind in englischer Sprache.

WHO SHOULD ATTEND

Any user new to simulating reciprocating engine in-cylinder processes with es-ice.

PREREQUISITES

Other requirements:

  • Basic pro-STAR and STAR-CD abilities are necessary to participate in this course. The key abilities being mouse driven plotting functionality, understanding the boolean set manipulations, NavCenter basics, and transient analysis problem setup.
