Vertiv Uses Ansys Digital Engineering Technology to Drive R&D Transformation

PRNewswire 14-Nov-2024 9:00 AM

Ansys intelligent engineering project will accelerate the development and delivery of customized data center cooling systems

Key Highlights

  • Ansys technology enables Vertiv to develop products and respond to customer requests with more agility, speeding up their go-to-market time
  • Ansys optiSLang™ automation and optimization framework accelerates the design of cooling technology, paving the path for Vertiv to design and manufacture data center critical digital infrastructure that can efficiently and reliably run artificial intelligence (AI) workloads
  • Ansys Minerva™ simulation process and data management web applications empower experts and non-experts alike to access automated simulations across the enterprise

PITTSBURGH, Nov. 14, 2024 /PRNewswire/ -- Vertiv (NYSE:VRT) is collaborating with Ansys (NASDAQ:ANSS) to digitally transform its design of data center cooling systems. Ansys digital engineering technology will help Vertiv improve scalability, enable early decision-making, and empower sales teams to swiftly provide customer quotes, reducing their go-to-market timelines.

Heat exchanger (HX) coils are key to the operation of data center thermal management systems; they efficiently transfer heat away from hardware and are highly customizable. However, HX coils are challenging and time-consuming to design given the complexity of the multiphysics and design expertise involved. With Ansys technology, Vertiv's engineering team can reduce development time and create predictively accurate, reliable designs.

Specifically, Minerva enables experts and non-experts to build and publish web applications to search for designs or generate new ones that meet customer requirements. This accessibility eliminates the designer-to-engineer handoff that causes time delays. With the AI-enhanced optimization framework of optiSLang, Vertiv can reduce material usage and lower costs by rapidly simulating ideal design configurations without having to iterate on physical prototypes.

"Ansys' industry-leading simulation solutions will help drive Vertiv's business model as we design solutions for the future," said Steve Blackwell, vice president of engineering at Vertiv. "Our mission is to revolutionize the way the world conceptualizes and develops data centers — from cooling and power technologies through implementing AI in the design of the data center itself. With Ansys, we will more quickly meet critical milestones that will help us deliver the most optimal infrastructure to support our customers' AI-based projects with energy-efficient and reliable future-forward designs."

Vertiv is a global provider of critical digital infrastructure and continuity solutions for applications ranging from traditional data centers to next generation "AI factories" with the power of the NVIDIA Blackwell platform.

"Data centers need the right tools to effectively maintain their hardware, so they can keep up with the AI boom," said Walt Hearn, senior vice president of worldwide sales and customer excellence at Ansys. "Vertiv is an industry leader in this domain, and their deep understanding of the needs of AI-enabled infrastructure allows them to develop both customized and turnkey solutions, enabling all customers to get the most value from their AI projects. By implementing Ansys solutions across R&D, Vertiv will improve productivity, reduce design time, and save considerable costs."
