Academic, Case Studies, Energy, Research, Tecplot 360 November 26, 2012

An energy engineer and Master’s degree candidate works to solve a problem common to many companies: how to keep business data safe while maximizing server and cooling equipment efficiencies. Dana Etherington utilized Tecplot 360, a computational fluid dynamics (CFD) program, to address this issue. The Challenge Companies rely on servers in their data centers to store and protect information that is critical to running their business:  email, financial, customer and […]

Tecplot helps utility researchers visualize magnetic fields

Case Studies, Civil Engineering, Energy, Tecplot 360 June 14, 2007

Contributed by Sylvain Gravel Hydro-Québec The Challenge: Accurately Visualizing Magnetic Flux Density In working with electrical power production and distribution, a key problem faced is being able to see the unseen – in other words, how does one view invisible electrical and magnetic forces at play? Hydro-Québec needed to be able to see magnetic flux density near a distribution power line, which is essentially understanding the power flow in the […]
