These include:
    • Engine performance modeling (GT-POWER)
    • Analysis of measured engine cylinder pressure
    • Acoustics of intakes and exhausts
    • Exhaust aftertreatment
    • Sil, HiL and Real-Time simulation
    • Vehicle dynamics (drive cycles, drivelines)
    • Hybrid and electric vehicles, fuel cells
    • Engine cooling
    • Vehicle thermal management
    • Vehicle energy management
    • Underhood cooling module analysis (3-D with COOL3D)
    • Air conditioning
    • Exhaust heat recovery
    • Lubrication circuits and bearings
    • Fuel injection systems
    • Hydraulics and pneumatics
    • Valvetrain/Camshaft kinematics and dynamics
    • Cranktrain kinematics and dynamics (incl. balancing and bearings)
    • Gear, chain and belt drives

In its foundations, GT-SUITE is a versatile multiphysics platform for constructing a wide range of engineering models through a combination of the following underlying libraries:

    • Flow library (1D and quasi-3D) – gases, liquids, refrigerants
    • Acoustics library (both non-linear and linear)
    • Thermal Library (lumped and FEA)
    • Mechanical library (kinematics, multi-body dynamics, freq.domain)
    • Electric and Electromagnetic library (circuits, electromechanical devices)
    • Chemistry Library (chemical kinetics)
    • Controls library (logic, math signal processing)

GT-SUITE is a unique tool, which provides the ability to execute Integrated Simulations of the entire vehicle and engine system. Such simulations are an industry trend that is gaining in importance and they constitute the next frontier in CAE applications.

GT-SUITE is an unusually versatile tool which can address many different analysis needscovered today by separate single-purpose codes. The possibility to use one tool to do many tasks brings many benefits:

     • Interactions between different system parts can be made as detailed as needed
     • Capabilities are automatically always synchronized (single version)
     • All teams use the same tool, facilitating their cooperation ("same language")
     • Data sharing is streamlined (and error-free)
     • Engineers share a "virtual engine/vehicle" model
     • This capability is key for studies of transients
     • GT-SUITE offers all this at a SIGNIFICANTLY LOWER COST than other solutions

Uniquely in the industry, GT-SUITE is supplied as an all-inclusive package with many valuable Productivity Tools that are included with all licenses at no extra cost. These tools increase user efficiency, and thus are important part of the product.

     • DOE tool to easily create large Design of Experiments simulations
     • DOE-POST for optimization based on DOE runs, plus other optimizers
     • Distributed computing to split larger jobs across multiple computers
     • Neural-Network automated training tool to create fast-running high-fidelity models
     • GEM tool for converting 3D CAD models into GT-SUITE models
     • 3-D CFD Coupled with STAR-CD, FLUENT, FIRE, CFX and OpenFOAM
     • Control Built-in library, plus coupling with SIMULINK
     • Libraries are user-extendable through user ‘super-objects’ or code
