Computational Fluid Dynamics (CFD) is a powerful simulation tool used to model the behaviour of fluids—such as air and smoke—within a building or industrial environment. At AESG, our CFD analysis plays a crucial role in enhancing fire safety, optimising HVAC system performance, and improving overall building design. By simulating the movement and interaction of gases and particulates, we provide insights that inform design decisions, compliance, and risk mitigation.
CFD uses mathematical modelling and numerical methods to predict fluid flow behaviour in complex environments. By applying CFD simulations, AESG can analyse scenarios that are difficult or impossible to test physically, providing a detailed understanding of how air, heat, and smoke will behave during different conditions. This capability is essential for:
Simulating the spread of smoke, heat, and toxic gases during a fire, allowing for the optimisation of smoke control systems and safe evacuation strategies.
Evaluating airflow distribution to ensure effective ventilation in enclosed spaces, such as tunnels, large atriums, or underground car parks.
Optimising heating, ventilation, and air conditioning (HVAC) systems for occupant comfort and energy efficiency.
Assessing the impact of potential blast scenarios on structural integrity and occupant safety.
Our CFD services cover a wide range of applications, including:
Using CFD to simulate the spread of fire and smoke under different scenarios, providing critical data for designing smoke control and evacuation strategies.
Evaluating airflow and temperature distribution to enhance thermal comfort and ensure efficient HVAC system operation.
Modelling the rate at which heat is released during a fire, helping to determine the severity of fire scenarios and the required performance of fire protection systems.
Conducting CFD simulations to predict the impact of potential explosions in industrial environments, aiding in the design of blast-resistant structures.
Analysing wind behaviour around tall buildings or in urban environments to assess potential effects on pedestrian comfort and safety.
Assessing temperature and air movement patterns within spaces to optimise occupant comfort and energy efficiency.
Our CFD expertise supports a variety of sectors, including:
Optimising smoke control, ventilation, and occupant safety.
Ensuring effective ventilation and air quality for sensitive environments.
Assessing explosion risks and ensuring safe airflow in hazardous environments.
Analysing fluid flow in tunnels, stations, and aircraft hangars.
Our commitment to fire and life safety is demonstrated through a portfolio of successful projects, including:
