Comfort & Moisture Control: CFD Analysis
Comfort & Moisture Control: CFD Analysis
SOCOTEC uses Computational Fluid Dynamics (CFD) to solve complex problems of comfort, moisture condensation and contaminant dispersion.
Our professionals analyze air flow, air temperature and moisture condensation in both large and small spaces.
We devise natural ventilation strategies, quantify the effectiveness of displacement ventilation, or look at airflow, moisture or particulate migration. These effects include comfort, moisture condensation, mold avoidance and contaminant dispersion.
We do CFD for more than just buildings. We also provide CFD modeling for neighborhoods, pollution studies and studies of HVAC components.
Software
SOCOTEC professionals primarily use Flovent and Fluent software, and have also used other types of analyses, such as CONTAM for a whole-building model of air movement.
