CFD is an extraordinarily powerful analysis and simulation tool that can be cost-effective in the right hands.  It can cut a product's time to market significantly by quickly evaluating design concepts and reducing the number of costly prototypes.  It also provides assurance that a field retrofit has a high probability of resolving an issue before the 10x field repair is conducted. 

CFD requires in depth training in numerical methods, differential equations, fluid dynamics, and thermodynamics to ensure the simulation model reflects the actual physics being evaluated.  In addition, experience in solid modelling, geometric decomposition, meshing, CFD solution algorithms, post-processing and significant computer resources are required to solve the parameters that affect your product.  Beyond the academics of CFD itself, industrial problems pose another set of intricacies that require balance between mesh resolution, solver time, and solution accuracy.  FPSE, LLC is formally educated in CFD and has successfully evaluated many industrial products with CFD.

Let us work with you to develop or improve your product.  We can identify the engineering parameters of interest that affect your product's performance, whether it be a time dependent pressure or species concentration, a flow distribution, the movement of an oil-water interface, the air-fuel mixing and resultant flame temperature, the effect of a dynamic boundary, the heat flux to another medium, or something else.
