Design & Simulation of
NEW HVAC&R
Equipment
Mathematical modeling and numerical process simulation are modern
techniques
extremely useful in the development of new processes and systems, in
particular
in the various fields related to energy conversion. However
approximate, computer
simulation of processes and systems allow the study of
almost any kind of process
at much lower costs than those of experimentation in
laboratory.
It is also appropriate to study operating conditions well beyond
normal, and even
of those possible only in the laboratory.
SIMULATION
is an essential DESIGN TOOL
Your Advantages
Reduced times from idea to product and rapid
prototyping, once a simulation tool is established; Development
costs are lower, since many situations may be simulated instead of tested
in the laboratory; Migration from one product series to the next will be
faster, since simulation results and experience may be combined to reduce
development times and costs.
Our Capabilities
Development of mathematical models of processes and systems, preferably in
cooperation with our customers. The implementation may be either as a rapid
prototyping solution (MathCadTM) for example, or as a stand alone
application. Process (system) analysis, parameter identification, mathematical
modeling; Research of pertinent literature; Definition, development and computer implementation of methods of model
solution; Analysis of results with eventual iteration with adjusted model(s); Reporting and documentation.
