Heat Shield Thermal Modeling and Analysis


Thermal analysis and design of heat shield for automotive exhaust

Advanced Heat Shield Engineering Support and Analysis

ThermoAnalytics' engineering team accurately simulates and analyzes the heat shields installed in critical heat-management applications: vehicles, ships, power plants, and more. Our engineers have optimized shields for weight reduction, thermal performance, and cost reduction. Built upon a practical background and an experience with real-world concerns, our simulations reflect a genuine understanding of the unique challenges facing each customer. Our overall engineering efficiency yields faster, more cost-effective solutions than in-house analysis or undue reliance on testing.

State-of-the-Art Heat Shield Modeling

Because we utilize our proprietary RadTherm software, our team can simulate your shielding methods and quickly provide initial results of your baseline design. These results yield rapid development of several new design iterations with more (or less) insulation, increased layers, surface treatments, or advanced shielding materials. You can then perform trade studies on the results.
