Industrial engineering is a vast field that includes many different processes. Understanding how these processes work is crucial to improving quality and productivity. Our CFD simulations give this understanding based on the fundamentals of most industrial processes: fluid flow, heat transfer, and material transport.
Heat exchangers are essential components of most industrial engineering processes. Transferring heat from one fluid to another is a crucial function. CFD is well-equipped to design and optimize heat exchangers. Thydan has been simulating heat exchangers with CFD for over a decade. Types of heat exchangers we've simulated include:
Demand for data centers increases every year. Server racks, however, generate heat that can negatively impact a center's performance. To combat this heat, data centers need carefully designed cooling. At Thydan, we have plenty of experience simulating data centers with CFD. We've successfully improved the cooling of several data centers. Improved cooling means better-performing servers with a longer lifespan. You can be assured that our CFD simulations will optimize your data center's hot aisles, cold aisles, and cooling units.
HVAC systems control indoor air temperature and humidity. They also filter dust, pollen, and other aerosols to clean the air. HVAC for large buildings, however, can be complicated. Our CFD simulations can simplify the design process and ensure all vents get equal air. We have experience modeling central air units, heat pumps, and other HVAC systems with CFD.
Many industrial plants vent gas into the atmosphere. Some are harmless, others can be hazardous. And, in some cases, it's required that vented gasses not get pulled back into the inlets of other machines. Our CFD simulations predict where vented gasses go, depending on weather conditions. These simulations are vital to deciding where vents and detectors should be placed.
Pulping is the process of removing lignin from wood. Lignin is what keeps the cell walls of plants rigid. Once wood chips are free from lignin, they can be used to make paper. Removing all the lignin can be difficult. But, improving the pulping process increases a paper mill's productivity. At Thydan, we have used CFD to improve how wood chips are cooked to make pulp.
Turbomachines include many types of rotors that transfer energy to or from fluids. Examples are pumps, fans, propellers, compressors, and turbines. Because each type is unique, it has its own design challenges. CFD is the perfect tool for understanding the detailed fluid flow inside these machines. We also have ample experience simulating turbomachines with compressible and incompressible fluids. Our CFD can predict cavitation with confidence for incompressible fluids.
