Acoustics Simulation
All product designers and engineers must consider the noise a product will generate as an increasingly important factor. This applies whether the product is designed to create noise, such as a hearing device or speaker, is intended to dampen noise such as a muffler, or has potential to create noise as an unexpected by-product through turbulence, friction or structural vibration.
Best-in-class companies are now bringing forward their assessment of a product’s acoustic performance, rather than run the risk of facing a costly build-and-test scenario later in the design stage. By utilising Ansys acoustics simulation techniques to analyse designs early in the design process with a virtual prototype, engineers can significantly reduce production lead times and avoid costly re-engineering processes.
