Multi-Fidelity Digital Twins with 1D and 3D Thermal Models

Using a digital twin, aerospace engineers can accurately determine the performance of the system and then improve performance, generate savings and increase operational flexibility. Aerospace systems have challenging thermal environments and requirements for thermal durability including engines, fuel systems, avionics, and cabins. 1D-3D co-simulation is now being used for the modelling and simulation of these complex aerospace systems for new platforms and retrofits. By efficiently combining the 1D systems models and detailed 3D models, it is possible to evaluate a larger design space and optimize performance over variable use cycles.
