CASE STUDY / Ansys + Siemens2 Ansys + Siemens // SIEMENS AG applies Ansys, Statistics on Structures and Ansys optiSLang for probabilistic analyses of geometric variations and their influence on the fa tigue behavior of a gas turbine housing. / Motiv ation SIEMENS AG manufactures large scale gas turbines for power generation, e.g., the gas turbine SGT5-8000H with 400 MW or CCPP up to 600 MW. The title image shows such a turbine during its assembly. These gas turbines are known for their high efficiency (GT with 40% and GUD even more than 60%). Customers look for power generation units, which are efficient, reliable, available, flexible and cost-effective. The competition with renewable energies imposes strong goals onto power plants to improve the cost effectiveness of their turb
