More than just airflow: CFD for thermal management and aeroacoustics

CFD simulations are now a key tool in modern development. At LENAM, they function as a virtual laboratory, enabling engineers to test and optimise designs before the first prototype is ever built. This significantly reduces the cost of physical testing while accelerating the entire development cycle. CFD simulations analyse fluid flow and heat transfer CFD (Computational Fluid Dynamics) is both a scientific discipline and an engineering tool that uses computer […]

Product Development Cannot Function Without Experimental Testing

During a visit to LENAM, we took the opportunity to speak with Ing. Petr Horník, Ph.D., Head of the Experimental Laboratory. Petr, could you tell us what LENAM focuses on and what makes your laboratory unique? First, I would like to explain the name LENAM. It is actually an acronym that stands for the Laboratory of Experimental, Numerical and Analytical Mechanics. I am responsible for the field of experimental mechanics. […]
