Sun Burn Analysis in Ansys Speos Software (Self-paced Learning Available)

Course Overview

In this self-paced course, you will learn how to perform the vehicle lighting sunburn analysis.

Projector headlamps can be exposed to high-intensity sun loads, which can physically damage them in the field. Although plastic offers numerous benefits, it is still vulnerable to sunlight. Exposure to sun rays may deteriorate plastic, especially if the sun produces a hot spot on the system. In this self-paced course, you will learn how to perform the vehicle lighting sunburn analysis.

With Ansys Speos® CAD integrated optical and lighting simulation software, you can predict these failures and identify the root cause early in the design, allowing engineers to fix them.

Prerequisites

  • Ansys Speos Getting Started 
  • Ansys Speos Software - How to create a parameter 

Teaching Method

Lectures and computer practical sessions to validate acquired knowledge. A training certificate is provided to all attendees who complete the course.

Learning Outcome

Following completion of this course, you will be able to:

  • Detect the worst critical position of the sun for your optical system.
  • Analyze the impact of specific sun positions you are interested in by using the Ansys Speos Design of Experiments (DoE).
