Application Models: Overview, Hydrogen Production, and Liquid Slurry Flows
As part of Chevron’s Pascagoula 2022 Turnaround planning, CPFD Software was contracted to model several parameters of interest for the refinery, reducing potential TA risk while delivering the desired results: reduced regen catalyst losses and improved afterburn.
CPFD Software is pleased to once again sponsor and participate in the SPE-GCS Annual Symposium. Saurav Mitra of CPFD Software will present “AI-Accelerated Reduced-Order Modeling for Dense Gas/Liquid-Solid Flows Using Barracuda Virtual Reactor (MP-PIC): An Industrial Perspective.”
This application model uses Barracuda Virtual Reactor to simulate solid particle erosion in a 90-degree elbow, capturing particle-wall impacts and wear patterns under varying mass loadings. The simulation demonstrates how particle collisions influence erosion severity and distribution, enabling evaluation of component durability in particulate-laden flows.
