Reactions and chemical processes
We assist with challenging simulation projects through our unique expertise, which combines world-class flow simulation with extensive process industry experience.
In chemical industry processes, reactions and mass transfer are essential phenomena. In chemical industry simulation projects, we most commonly aim to improve mixing, separation, heat transfer, or mass transfer using CFD.
In chemical reaction simulations, our strong chemical industry expertise and ability to simplify demanding processes create a solid foundation for cost-effective results.
Mass transfer, particle separation, bubble rise velocity, phase change, and heat transfer all play a major role in process efficiency. We possess both application expertise and the ability to clarify complex phenomena, both of which play an important role in a successful simulation project.
Reactions and chemical processes using CFD modeling

Hydrogen processing requires safety expertise – Elomatic’s strength lies in its extensive experience within the process industry
In hydrogen projects, safety planning is taken into account right from the very first stages of design. Designing for safety requires a diverse understanding of chemical and physical processes.
Finding the full potential of CFD
CFD, or Computational Fluid Dynamics, is a method that is often utilized only for the post-design phase, although it is very well suited for wider and efficient use throughout the design process. Optimal use of CFD analysis generally shortens projects’ lead times and improves product assessment. It also provides an excellent basis for preparing digital twins. In process modeling tasks, CFD is an excellent tool for studying the components, for example.
Not only colorful pictures – CFD saves time and money
Did you know that by using computational fluid dynamics (CFD) you can save as much as 80 % in design time and 60 % in design costs? During the past 20 years, I’ve been lucky enough to participate in many interesting simulation projects both in Finland and abroad and have seen how clients have received instant help. But what is CFD really? Where can it be applied and why should it be utilized?
