Phased Array 2D

Get started by simulating a basic 2D piezoelectric phased array with water load. 12 min 0.4 Core-Hours

Phased Array Sweep

Run a design study to see the effects of focus angle on beam profile. 7 min 15.5 Core-Hours (16 CPU)

Phased Array 3D

Simulate a 5x5 3D phased array and capture the beam profile. 59 mins 15.56 Core-Hours (16 CPU)

Why Simulate Phased Arrays in OnScale?

Large Design Spaces

OnScale has the ability to run and evaluate 1000s of designs in parallel.

Solution to Large Problems

OnScale can simulate large phased arrays in full 3D.

Advanced Solvers

Advanced solvers enable large transducer models to be solved in hours rather than days.
