| The design of new equipment, whether it is hull forms or propeller shapes, exhaust stacks or engine cooling systems, is more efficient when computational fluid dynamics (CFD) software is used. Rather than relying on costly experimental trials involving towing tanks or laboratory scale mock-ups, preliminary testing using CFD helps narrow the design possibilities.
There are many aspects of production work, including welding, grit blasting, engine placement, spray painting and toxic fume ventilation that have been successfully modeled using Fluent's suite of software products.
And, for equipment that is operational, CFD can be used to identify operating regimes that should be avoided to optimize performance and safety.
