Case Studies

Data Center Cooling Airflow Analysis with Boreas

A case study analysing data center cooling airflow with Boreas, an FFD-based solver. The subject is a measured 151-rack, 344 kW facility whose layout and operating conditions are published, and the analysis produces the steady-state temperature field and per-rack inlet and outlet temperatures.

Dynamic CFL Control of a CFD Solver with an LLM

We built a controller that adjusts CFL in real time during a CFD run using a commercial LLM, and attached it to the Wake solver. The LLM alone diverged; combined with a fast rule-based safety layer, the hybrid converged 27% faster than a human-tuned constant CFL.

Aeroacoustic Analysis of an Automotive HVAC System with Flow360

Aerodynamic noise in automotive HVAC systems matters more in the electric vehicle era. This case study predicts it directly with Flow360, a GPU-native CFD solver, and compares the sound pressure spectra against experiment.

Validation

UV Fluence Rate Simulation with the MSSS Model

A UV fluence rate simulator built on the MSSS model replaces the full radiative transfer equation with an absorption-dominant simplification. It predicts the radiation field in water treatment and semiconductor UV systems effectively, and agrees closely with measurement even in real reactor geometries.

Conjugate Heat Transfer CFD of a High-Efficiency Induction Motor

A thermal-flow analysis of a super-premium efficiency induction motor at rated load. Anisotropic conduction in the windings and cores, Taylor vortices in the air gap and the external fan flow were modelled together, and the winding temperature came within 5.0°C of measurement.
