CFD Analysis of Diesel Engine and Aftertreatment Systems


We offer computational fluid dynamics (CFD) software and services that can be used to analyze the complete diesel engine system: from intake to in-cylinder spray and combustion to exhaust aftertreatment.

By visualizing the flow, heat transfer, chemical reactions and other phenomena within a system or component, you can improve the performance of your products while reducing time-to-market and prototyping and testing costs.

Get a detailed view into the performance of diesel engine systems or components quickly and accurately, such as:

  • Intake and exhaust manifolds
  • In-cylinder flow, spray and combustion
  • Emissions and aftertreatment
  • Diesel particulate filters (DPF)
  • Selective catalytic reduction (SCR)
  • Catalytic converters
  • Fuel injector internal flows with cavitation
  • Fuel injector spray simulations
  • Piston cooling, and more
