Water Circulation and Swimming Pool Safety
Since the 1980's there have been at least 147 incidents documented of suction entrapment in swimming pools, including 36 deaths. Suction entrapment occurs when a swimmer, usually a small child, is trapped by the suction forces created by the water rushing out of the drain at the bottom of the pool. In some cases swimmers have been trapped underwater until they drowned and in others they have suffered serious injuries to various parts of their bodies. The swimming pool industry has made serious progress in improving the safety of drains and this has reduced but not eliminated some of the injuries and deaths. |

| Customer Testimonials |
“Every product in the shipbuilding industry is completely tailor-made, and therefore, each project requires separate R&D efforts and individual design. The tight schedules and large scales of the product make physical testing nearly impossible. At DSME, FLUENT has been validated against test results to give us confidence in its predictions. We have used it for simulations of smoke emission, boundary layer flow around streamlined bodies, and HVAC&R studies. The combination of high performance computing, and the quantitative accuracy and wealth of physical models in FLUENT has helped us save millions of dollars. More importantly, we see CFD as a rapidly expanding technology for the shipbuilding and marine industry as a whole.”
