[CATIA] Systems Fluid Power Library

 

Model and predict hydraulic systems behavior for transportation, and mobility, aerospace and industrial equipment industries

The Modelica based Fluid Power Library enables the modeling and simulation of hydraulic systems using oil. It addresses the needs of development engineers for designing and finds the right solutions for their hydraulics systems in a multi-disciplinary engineering approach, including control and mechanical models in the same environment. Ready-to-use components enable to rapidly design hydraulic systems and predict their different behaviors, from early concept studies through to detailed control system design and implementation.

The FluidPower library is designed to support development of hydraulic systems in any engineering domain.

  • Automotive and Motorsports: Braking, Power-steering, Transmission actuation

  • Aerospace: Braking, Landing-gear, Flap actuation systems, Aeroengine controls

  • Off-Highway: Transmissions, Construction / Mining machinery

  • Industrial: Actuation systems for infrastructure or manufacturing

 

Benefits

  • Asses and validate control laws for hydraulics systems from conceptual design to validation phases

  • Minimize costs through reduced need for physical prototype testing

  • Accelerate development convergence by enabling concurrent engineering and common understanding of the system behavior

  • Simplification in design processes by easily composing hydraulic systems with other disciplines

  • Components in the FluidPower library can be interfaced with other libraries to build multi-domain systems

 

Highlights

  • Wide range of pumps, cylinders, valves restrictions, lines and volumes

  • Thermal behavior available on components such as the tubes.

  • System and component design in the same applications, with the usage of other libraries

  • Full Functional Mockup Interface (FMI) support

  • It is possible to create new fluid by extending existing Partial Hydraulic Oil class

  • ISO 1219 standard for Hydraulic diagrams is used
