Flowmatic is an engineering consultancy specialising in the art of Computational Fluid Dynamics (CFD).

CFD is a powerful tool in the hands of experienced modellers. In situations where physical diagnostics on an industrial flow system are difficult or impossible, CFD can be applied to help engineers understand fundamental physics that drive the system. CFD in the wrong hands, however, can produce contradictory and non-physical results or predictions that mislead engineers.

At Flowmatic, we have over 16 years of experience in providing CFD services to a broad range of industries, in Australia as well as abroad.  In no particular order, they include (not an exhaustive list):

Automotive

  • Heat exchanger

Power Generation

  • Pneumatic conveying
  • Grit removal
  • Positioning of thermoelectric generators

Oil and Gas

  • Wet scrubbing
  • Flow splitting
  • Reactor design
  • Atomisation

Water Treatment

  • Positioning of sensors in the pipelines for reliable water quality measurements
  • Grease trapping

Light Metal Production

  • Extraction by supersonic condensation

Iron Making

  • Waste heat and material recovery

Environmental Protection

  • Stack emission compliance

Additive Manufacturing

  • Cold spray 

Almost all of the work undertaken involved complex physics, such as phase-change, multi-phase flows, heat transfer, chemical reactions, changing frame of reference, etc.
