CFdesign UVCalc Module

The CFdesign UVCalc Module allows you to simulate and validate UV reactor performance
Using ultraviolet technology for the disinfection of water and other liquids has become a challenge for many companies and engineers looking to employ this emerging technology.  The CFdesign UVCalc Module allows those engineers to simulate the UV fluence rate inside a reactor, in combination with the flow field, to ultimately predict the distrubution of the UV dose. The CFdesign UVCalc Module is developed through a partnership with Jim Bolton, developer of UVCalc and founder of Bolton Photosciences, Inc.

The combination of CFdesign and the UVCalc Module allows engineers to:
● Determine the distribution of UV dose along various flow paths in the reactors and determine the impact of other factors, such as the flow rate, flow distribution, and axial mixing, all which can affect the fluence or UV dose and the performance of the reactor.

● Run scenarios which include simulating the effect of inlet flow distribution changes (piping), different transmittance of the fluids, changes in flow rate or flow obstructions.

● See side-by-side design comparison and data results of multiple reactor concepts through contour plots, cut planes, iso-surface, particle traces and vectors.

● Providing the ability to explore a broad spectrum of possibilities to achieve an optimal design before proceeding with the very expensive and time consuming certification process
