Beyond steady-state, building a dynamic digital twin of gas turbine to predict transients with system simulation

November 6, 2026

This blog highlights how to build a dynamic digital twin of gas turbine to predict transients with system simulation. It shows how Simcenter Amesim can help with its Gas Turbine library and coming with dedicated specialized apps. Also why it’s needed to go beyond steady-state with design point approaches, and why dynamic transient analysis matters for operational sequences (start-up, …). It’s applied to the Siemens Energy SGT-600 gas turbine.

Powering data centers with gas turbines – Why System Simulation matters

September 1, 2026

This blog highlight how System Simulation with Simcenter Amesim can help designing the appropriate gas turbines for the power generation of AI Data Centers. It’s based on a Siemens Energy SGT-800 gas turbine, while it could be adapted to any other type of gas turbines, also from other manufacturers worldwide.

Vibrations in Rotating Systems – When defects and harsh conditions break the symmetry of rotating systems

December 20, 2023

Simcenter 3D Rotor Dynamics can study simultaneous unbalance defects on different rotors in rotating systems at different speeds, as well as the natural unbalance that can be deduced from a deformed geometry (thermal bow or static bow) due to external factors such as applied loads and temperature.
