CFD Modeling for Controlled Environment Agriculture

Swanson Rink uses computational fluid dynamics (CFD) analysis to simulate the effects of plant transpiration in a controlled environment for improved facility design and performance. Understanding plant-air interactions is key to optimizing the distributed climate within indoor plant growth facilities.

Read more about the intricacies of plant transpiration and how Swanson Rink’s unique CFD modeling techniques can help optimize your facility.

6 Reasons Why Your Data Center May Need a CFD Model

Swanson Rink uses computational fluid dynamics (CFD) analysis to simulate how air behaves in the built environment. With a particular focus on data centers, and how air behaves both inside the data center and around the exterior of the building. CFD modeling is utilized to simulate airflow conditions that otherwise could not be accurately predicted with conventional engineering means.

Not all data centers will require CFD analysis. In this post we will look at 6 reasons why a CFD model may be valuable for your data center:

  1. Data Center Hot Spots
  2. Failure Scenarios
  3. Air Static Pressure Calculations
  4. Building Effects on Natural Wind Patterns
  5. Tracking the Dispersion of Heat and Humidity
  6. Tracking the Dispersion of Exhaust Fumes
