19TH SEPTEMBER 2017: 3rd EXPERT MEETING OF THE PROJECT FUTURA
Place: Velika Dolina, Slovenia
Project partners OMNIA, VUD and KOVIS have attended the 3rd expert meeting in Kovis business unit Velika Dolina.
At the beginning of the meeting, followed by introductory speech of development manager, the Kovis business unit Velika Dolina was presented to partners.
The meeting continued with presentation of the results. Presentation of the process of optimization was done by engineering department of Kovis. Presentation in details described simulation process of all prototypes.
Presentations were held in purpose for partners to understand how optimization for all seven prototypes was done, and what kind of results were needed for sucessful validation of final design.
The presentation of design process of hub was prepared by Omnia.
Discussion on optimization results was on how analysis were performed, and which tools were used for optimization of shape of cooling ribs and hub, and also which parameters were cruical for choosing the best design. The debate was on parametric modelling and temperature measurement while performing FEM analysis. Those methods were discussed and compared to methods of laboratory tests.
On this occasion the draft and content of scientific article was presented to consortium partners.
The meeting ended with the tour around production facility was performed.
