CFD provides the following options:
- Accurate calculation of temperature, humidity, CO2 concentration, and airflows inside buildings.
- Simulation of thermal distribution in structures under various conditions, considering external and internal environmental factors.
- Analysis of surface temperatures to prevent condensation, especially on transparent facades.
- Optimization of HVAC systems and placement of outdoor equipment to prevent overheating.
- Verification of design solutions to maintain comfortable thermal conditions.
- Calculation of wind loads and assessment of pedestrian comfort when planning the outlay of buildings.
- Calculation of optimal air distribution patterns depending on the HVAC system in use.
The modeling process includes:
- Architectural features of the building or analyzed space.
- Properties of enclosing structures and materials.
- External conditions (temperature, pressure, speed, air exchanges).
- Initial conditions, such as indoor air temperature.
Our CFD services:
1. Heat Transfer Calculations Modern architectural solutions require detailed heat transfer modeling to prevent condensation on internal surfaces and to enable risk assessment of freezing or overheating of structural nodes.
2. Indoor Microclimate Calculations Creating an optimal indoor microclimate is a key task. HPBS offers services like HVAC design analysis, temperature, humidity, and air movement calculations, thermal comfort evaluation (PMV/PPD indices), and optimal air distribution.
3. Wind Load and Pedestrian Comfort Calculations CFD modeling helps evaluate wind loads and pedestrian comfort around buildings, optimizing building and infrastructure placement, especially for public areas.
Advantages of CFD:
- Optimizes equipment costs by calculating HVAC loads, reducing capital expenditures.
- Improves indoor comfort and reduces operational costs through precise parameter selection.
- Prevents construction issues during building operation, avoiding future additional expenses.
