For years, the design of Smoke and Heat Exhaust Ventilation Systems (SHEVS) was largely a game of tables, rigid formulas, and prescriptive limits. If your building was a standard box, the standard rules worked fine. But modern architecture rarely Read more
A technical deep dive into creating conformal solid-fluid interfaces using snappyHexMesh and SALOME. Introduction In the world of Computational Fluid Dynamics with OpenFOAM, moving from single-phase fluid flow to Conjugate Heat Transfer (CHT) is a significant step up in Read more
When designing buildings, ensuring the structure can withstand a fire for a specified duration is paramount. This validation often hinges on understanding how the surrounding air temperature will evolve over time—a process often simplified by standard temperature curves. The Read more
When you use FEA (like with Calculix or OpenRadioss) on a pressure vessel, you get a full, complex distribution of stress through the wall thickness. However, global design codes like ASME BPVC Section VIII, Division 2 (Design-by-Analysis) and EN Read more
