aerospace simulation solutionsSIMULATIONS FOR ELECTRIC AND TURBINE AIRCRAFT
Gamma Technologies is the developer of GT-SUITE, the industry-leading Model-Based Systems Engineering (MBSE) CAE system simulation software. GT-SUITE provides a comprehensive set of validated 0D/1D/3D multi-physics component libraries, which simulate the physics of fluid flow, thermal, mechanical, multi-body, structural, electrical, magnetic, chemistry, and controls. Utilizing combinations of these libraries, accurate models can be built of practically any system such as turbines, burners, hydraulic systems, fuel systems, landing gears, environmental control systems, cryogenic systems and many more. All this makes GT-SUITE a leading aerospace engineering software.
