FLACS-forbedringer for gass- og støveksplosjoner, brannsprinklere og muliscenario modellering 2024

Offentlig prosjektsammendrag

Our software FLACS was first developed 30 years ago and has been traditionally been used by expert users and used primarily for offshore oil and gas safety studies. Gradually we are seeing our user base expand from expert users in the O&G industry to less experienced users in many other countries and industries (Nuclear, Chemical, Pharmaceutical, Automotive, Insurance and Renewables). The main drivers for this project are requests for this new functionality is primarily from potential future customers and changes in the market (green energy shift). The main outcome will be new state-of-the-art functionality in our existing software FLACS, including Genetic Algorithm for automatic gridding, a quick engineering sub-model for CFD fire deluge mitigation modelling and methodology and software functionality for transient surrogate model interpolation of CFD results.
