Hypersonics

Not too long ago, hypersonic technology seemed like the brass ring at a carousel — coveted but seemingly just out of reach. Today, it's the sort of thing that keeps people up at night.

Conditions at hypersonic speeds are difficult or even impossible to reproduce under test conditions such as a wind tunnel. Therefore, simulation is vital to these technologies. Ansys solutions deliver essential analysis capabilities such as:

• Predicting the aerothermodynamic environment
• Designing cooling and thermal protection systems
• Analyzing airframe structural integrity
• Lifting of sensors
• Forecasting communication degradation and blackout
• Modeling systems of systems with digital mission engineering
