Not every project requires CFD (Computational Fluid Dynamics) analysis.
However, CFD is highly recommended in the following situations:
-
Projects with high comfort requirements (Grade A offices, hotels, hospitals)
-
Spaces with high ceilings or complex geometry
-
Projects involving international clients or consultants
-
Buildings that have previously experienced HVAC operational issues
CFD helps to:
-
Analyze technical causes of HVAC problems
-
Propose improvement solutions based on engineering evidence
CFD does not increase operational costs; instead, it helps reduce future costs associated with fixing design or performance issues.
