The Engineering Challenge

Industrial water systems involve complex fluid dynamics with heat transfer, multi-phase flows, and chemical reactions. Traditional design approaches rely on empirical correlations and safety factors, often resulting in oversized equipment and suboptimal performance. The petrochemical facility's cooling tower system was experiencing thermal inefficiencies and uneven flow distribution, leading to 20% higher energy consumption and frequent hot spots requiring expensive retrofits.

We developed a comprehensive CFD simulation platform specifically designed for industrial water systems, featuring advanced turbulence models, multi-phase capabilities, and specialized water treatment modules for accurate design optimization and performance prediction.
