Rostec will design engines on domestic engineering software

2022: Design of engines on domestic engineering software

On March 31, 2022, the company ASCON"" announced that Rybinsk the company "" UDC-Saturn"" United Engine Corporation is introducing the Russian an automated design system "" of the COMPASS-3D company "ASKON" within import substitution the framework of engineering. software The use of domestic CAD platforms will ensure independence from foreign analogues and give developers ON opportunities for the further development of their products.

On the eve of the president Russia Vladimir Putin signed a decree "On measures to ensure technological independence and" and safety critical information infrastructure of the Russian Federation decided state customers to stop from March 31 purchases foreign software used at critical infrastructure facilities.

UEC-Saturn engineers study the domestic design system using a course provided by the development company. This will help you get started faster with a new digital tool without compromising performance.

"Designing aircraft, much less as complex as gas turbine engines, requires the use of up-to-date software. The Russian CAD system meets the requirements of engine builders, it is safe to work with. In addition, it allows you to create digital doubles, this tool will be used in the development of a model of one of the aircraft engines. COMPAS-3D will be able to largely replace foreign counterparts, ensure independence from the mood of suppliers of imported software and provide opportunities for the development of domestic solutions, " commented on in the Rostec aviation cluster.

At the end of March 2022, the integration of the software ecosystem into the UEC-Saturn information space is underway. Close interaction between the parties allows the company to quickly resolve issues of maintaining design quality when switching to other software. In addition, domestic developers were able to work more closely, directly with design and technological departments, receive comments on their products directly from the "design table" and optimize their solutions.

"Developing in the direction of heavy-class CAD systems, over the previous three versions, COMPAS-3D received current tools for solving aircraft and engine engineering problems. COMPASS-3D allows you to work with assemblies of any complexity, carry out hydrogasodynamic calculations, multivariable and topological optimization of the model, borrow product components from other CAD, perform collision diagnostics and gap control. In the future version of COMPAS-3D v21, many innovations in surface modeling will appear, data exchange with other CAD systems, attribute reading will be optimized, "- Igor Volokitin, Product Director of COMPAS-3D at ASCON, emphasized.

The COMPAS-3D system has been developed in Russia for more than 30 years, it is based on its own geometric core and fully complies with Russian standards for the design documentation and electronic model of products. Its current version has the capabilities necessary to create digital doubles of products - such as 3D solid modeling, surface and sheet modeling, direct geometry editing, data exchange with other CAD systems.
