Concepts NREC, Cadence Design Systems Partner for Turbomachinery CAE Development

The two companies’ partnership aim to advance CAE software for turbomachinery design and analysis.

Concepts NREC has entered into a strategic partnership with Cadence Design Systems to focus on software development and sales in the field of computer-aided engineering (CAE) for turbomachinery. The collaboration will involve the continued development of Fidelity/Agile, a software platform encompassing the entire design process for turbomachinery, including system/cycle design, preliminary sizing, fluid dynamics, and mechanical stress/vibration analysis.

Both companies will provide training and customer support for the technology, which has already found applications in gas turbines, compressors, rocket engines, pumps, and turbochargers.
