Case Study: Optimized Safety Solutions creates quality CFD visuals with SimScale

Optimized Safety Solutions creates quality CFD visuals with SimScale

Optimized Safety Solutions (OSS) used SimScale’s CFD platform to better understand the flow behavior and concentration of diesel exhaust fumes entering a warehouse. The team needed high-quality visuals and animations for a presentation to safety professionals, and they were working against a tight deadline for the National Safety Conference.

With SimScale, OSS modeled fume diffusion and flow velocity in a steady-state incompressible CFD simulation using a k-omega SST turbulence model and passive scalar approach. The warehouse case was meshed with 1.7 million cells in 17 minutes and the simulation ran in 37 minutes, enabling OSS to produce professional post-processing images and animations, test ventilation options more efficiently, and spend more time on presentation-quality results.
