Fluid Group

The Fluid Group specialises in Computational Fluid Dynamics & Process Modelling for Chemical Engineering, Water and Wastewater Treatment. The company was founded in 2005.

3D flow modelling

The Fluid Group provides state-of-the art, 3D flow modelling from first principles.

In the water and environmental sector, CFD modelling is used to optimise the design and operation of mixing tanks, reservoirs, rivers, pumping stations, flow splits, filter distribution systems, aeration lanes, clarifiers, digesters... and much more ...

3D modelling can confirm whether a new engineering design will meet the design objectives, or examine why an operating plant is failing. Money is saved by comparing potential solutions with computer simulation before further construction or product development.

Global research

The Fluid Group also values its contribution to global research in the field of 3D modelling. Interests include healthcare simulation where blood flow is modelled from the corotid artery to the heart and brain; and the modelling of nanoparticles for a range of practical applications - enhanced fuel storage, medical treatment and wastewater removal.
