Increase the efficiency of your processes by up to 25% with computational fluid dynamics, while reducing prototyping costs by 30%.
How computational fluid dynamics can help you
Computational Fluid Dynamics (CFD) emerged from combining fluid mechanics and numerical computation. This symbiosis facilitates the solution of fluid mechanics equations, allowing for the prediction of fluid flow behavior using various numerical methods.
This blend of disciplines, combined with the computing power of current computer systems, allows for the generation of simulations and the execution of calculations that improve the planning and construction of industrial projects by optimizing processes and resources and anticipating potential problems arising from the behavior of process fluids.
This tool, key to analysis and designIt has proven to be very useful, moving beyond the university to become practically established in the industrial sector, because thanks to it the complexity of calculating the equations that describe fluid dynamics is no longer an obstacle.
CFD simulation to forecast needs
CFD simulation uses user-provided data about the system under study to generate solutions and simulations based on mathematical calculations of fluid dynamics. Thanks to the results obtained from the computational simulation, it is possible to optimize the design, predict and diagnose potential problems or failures in the installation, improve energy efficiency, and gain a more effective understanding of the system's flow.

Advantages of installing computational fluid dynamics in your processes
The most notable advantages of installing computational fluid dynamics simulation in your process include, among others, the following:
Speed up development time
It allows you to virtually test different equipment and design options before construction, ensuring from early stages that the design is optimal with low costs, by avoiding the need to build physical prototypes, and saving time.
Detection of design flaws
Simulation allows you to identify and correct design problems before they occur or, in already built industries, to understand how the flow works in order to correct recurring errors.
Reduce costs
In the construction process, it helps determine the ideal procedure, avoiding the cost of building physical prototypes or pilot plants. This advantage is further enhanced by process optimization, which always leads to cost savings. In short, it simplifies, accelerates, and reduces the costs of both plant construction and production.
Greater reliability
It allows for the simulation of the performance and capacity of equipment and/or designs, enabling you to know before construction whether they will meet the required specifications. Furthermore, it provides data on system behavior under different conditions, anticipating potential errors.
Safety and operational efficiency
By providing data on system behavior and anticipating potential complications, it is a great tool for strengthening plant safety, as it allows those in charge to address these weaknesses or create safety protocols.

Optimization and reduction of operating costs
Computational fluid dynamics simulation is a valuable tool for optimizing your plant. From the conceptual phase, it helps determine the design that offers the best performance and anticipates potential operational errors. This results in the optimal construction and operational solution, which ultimately provides the industry with a competitive advantage. This optimization translates into reduced operating costs by helping to select the most suitable pump for operational requirements, optimize reagent consumption, eliminate dead zones in tanks, and more.

Frequently Asked Questions about the CFD Simulation Service
In what cases does computational fluid dynamics bring the greatest benefit to my project?
Computational fluid dynamics is very useful in early design phases, helping to find the best alternatives, evaluate multiple design options, seek system and equipment optimization, predict errors and risks, etc.
How do you ensure the accuracy of computational fluid dynamics and its correct application?
To ensure the accuracy and correct application of the CFD simulation, a mesh convergence study is performed. When two mesh refinements differ very little, it means that mesh convergence has been achieved. Once the mesh is found, the model's physics is configured and solved iteratively until the difference between two solutions is negligible, indicating that the model has been optimized. Once the optimal results are known, they can be applied to the physical project.
Will I be able to apply the results of the CFD simulation directly to my design and production process?
The results can always be applied to the design and production process, but it will depend on each case whether this can be applied directly or will require certain adjustments to the system.
How long will it take to see results with CFD simulation?
The results of a CFD simulation depend on the calculation and design difficulties of the simulation in question, so they can vary from a few days to several weeks.
