/ 181 AVL EXCITE POWER UNIT is the industry’s leading tool for calculating the dynamics, strength and acoustics of combustion engines, transmissions and powertrains. It is also used for the detailed analysis of local hydrodynamic effects in oil-lubricated contacts (slider bearings, piston-liner contacts). AVL EXCITE DESIGNER uses analytical methods in order to enable the fast and realistic dimensioning of crankshafts and powertrains at an early stage in the development process. AVL EXCITE TIMING DRIVE ensures reliable results for all kinds of valve trains and timing drives. It covers the entire work-flow, from the kinematic designing of cam profiles and the dynamic behavior of individual components, to the entire timing drives driven by gears, chains or belts. AVL EXCITE PISTON & RINGS is an efficient tool for sizing piston assemblies. The piston ring module can be used to calculate absolute values for inter-ring pressures, piston ring movements and blow-by as well as the reliable trend prediction of lube oil consumption. AVL EXCITE ACOUSTICS is a new tool for calculating the noise radiation of vibrating structures such as power units. Using a unique automated procedure to generate the acoustic mesh within minutes, starting from the unmodified structural FE mesh and a wave-based technique solver, it enables the calculation of airborne noise results with significant short analysis lead time.
