CFD
FMCT Consulting, LLC specializes in the design and simulation of engineering applications, involving concepts of
Turbulent flows
Conduction, convection and radiation heat transfer
Reacting flows and mass transfer
Buoyancy driven flows
Multi-phase flows (Eulerian & Lagrangian)
CFD modeling for Heat Recovery Steam Generators (HRSG), Selective Catalytic Reduction (SCR) systems, Heat exchangers, GT exhausts systems and stacks, acoustic silencer systems, spray dryer absorbers, coke oven systems, flow control devices and industrial duct-work and vane systems.
Full HRSG Systems
CFD models representing pressure drop within the HRSG, flow distrbution, burner performance, CO & SCR
Combustion Modeling
CFD models with combustion can be used to assess the thermal performance of HRSG, heat exchangers and other power-related equipment. Based on the type of equipment in use, premixed and non-premixed combustion characteristics using CFD can help predict peak temperatures, regions of hot spots and other thermo-convective effects.
Full Selective Catalytic Reduction (SCR) Systems
CFD models for SCR units can be used to assess flow & thermal distribution in the unit, hence identifying regions of flow mal-distribution and help offer design alternatives to achieve better unit efficiency.
Distribution Grid Analysis
Distribution grids and other flow control devices in HRSG and catalyst units are critical components of the design, whereby ensuring optimal flow distribution to the heating surfaces and catalyst. CFD models can help evaluate grid flow performance and help provide pressure drop recommendations for the same.
CO & SCR Catalyst Flow Distribution Study
CFD models can help predict flow & thermal distributions entering catalyst surfaces. These results can help provide catalyst providers with recommendations for improving the design.
AIG Design Evaluation & Optimization
CFD modeling can be used to assess ammonia injection grid design performance. Proper ammonia-flue-gas mixing is critical for optimal SCR performance and detailed customized AIG CFD models can help investigate this flow behavior.
Stack Exhaust Systems
Many simple-cycle or combined-cycle power plants' exhaust stacks contain noise-abatement devices like stack silencers or stack dampers. These equipment are designed for a range of flow velocity and temperatures for optimal performance. Also adequate upstream flue-gas mixing is critical in meeting certain emission standards in the exhaust stacks. CFD models can be used to assess the flow performance of such devices and help achieve a high performance design.
