Applications

HVAC & Climate Control

HVAC engineers are challenged with balancing improved system performance with safety, energy efficiency, and customer specifications. M-Star CFD helps engineers visualize problems and generate solutions to optimize HVAC system designs—fast, accurately, and cost-effectively—without having to install or build a physical prototype.

CFD Modeling Capabilities

M-Star CFD was built to handle simulations with millions and billions of lattice grid points. This allows you to generate not just high resolution images but, more importantly, to simulate and optimize real HVAC and climate control processes.

Modeling HVAC Systems using Real-time CFD

M-Star President John Thomas presents on analyzing flow in HVAC systems using real-time CFD. The analysis includes computing velocity and temperature distributions, as well as predicting particular counts and path lines. This discussion is particularly relevant to engineers and scientists working in the areas of human comfort, architectural design, facility design, and ventilation engineering.
