SUMMARY:PSRI -  Fluidization Seminar in Houston\, Texas\, February 2-5th\, 2026
DESCRIPTION:CPFD will give an invited guest lecture about “Simulation of Industrial-Scale Fluidized Beds and Fluid-Particle Systems” at the PSRI Fluidization Seminar\, taking place February 2-5th\, 2026 at CityPlace Marriott at Springwoods Village in Houston\, TX. \nThe purpose of the PSRI Fluidization Seminar is to supply instruction on the theory\, design and operation of fluidized beds and solids transfer systems for engineers new to the field\, or those who want to improve their understanding of the field.  The four-day course covers the basics of fluidized beds and solids transfer\, and then discusses how best to design and operate the most critical elements of fluidized beds and solids transfer such as cyclones\, standpipes\, gas distributors and pneumatic conveying lines. \n\nBasic Fluidization Hydrodynamics\nGas Distributor Design and Operation\nCirculating Fluidized Beds and High-Velocity Systems\nCyclone Design and Operation\nDilute and Dense-Phase Conveying\nParticle Entrainment\nErosion and Particle Attrition\nStandpipes and Solids Flow Systems\n\nLearn more about the fluidization seminar and workshop or register here.

SUMMARY:NARTC - February 10-12\, 2026
DESCRIPTION:The North American Refining Technology Conference (NARTC) is the World Refining Association’s regional refining event with a core focus on connecting US refineries with the cutting-edge technologies that will determine the role of refining in the Energy Transition. \nCPFD Software will be attending NARTC this year\, and we hope to see you there. Please contact us if you would like to specifically arrange an in-person meeting with our team.

SUMMARY:Barracuda Application Model Webinar Series: Direct Reduced Iron Shaft Furnace - February 11\, 2026
DESCRIPTION:UPDATE 02-11-2026: Playback available now. \nCPFD Software’s Barracuda Application Model Webinar Series is designed to give engineers and researchers deeper insight into how Barracuda Virtual Reactor is applied to real-world challenges. Application models are sample cases that can be downloaded\, run\, and customized by the Barracuda Virtual Reactor user community. \n\n\n\nThis installment in the series will focus on the Direct Reduced Iron Shaft Furnace Application Model\, which provides a detailed digital twin of a full-scale DRI shaft furnace based on operating data from a commercial plant in Quebec\, Canada. The model captures key process zones\, including cooling\, reducing\, and transition regions\, using a moving bed framework with compressible flow\, volumetric and discrete reaction chemistry\, and user-defined reaction kinetics. Additionally\, CPFD will be sharing results from our work with Molten Industries in the development of a novel H₂-DRI shaft furnace. \n\n\n\nJoin us to learn how this application model can help advance your understanding of subsurface transport and improve production outcomes.

SUMMARY:Barracuda Virtual Reactor Web-based Training February 23-27\, 2026
DESCRIPTION:This training is designed to get you up to speed with Barracuda Virtual Reactor in five days.  Each day\, attendees work through self-led materials and join a pre-scheduled 1-hour web meeting that emphasizes interaction with instructors and other participants.  By the end of the course\, you’ll have a working understanding of how to use Virtual Reactor™ software\, including project setup\, operating the solver\, and post-processing using Tecplot for Barracuda. Depending on your organization’s needs\, our experienced team of engineers and training staff can provide hands-on assistance as you set up your own project in Virtual Reactor during private break-out sessions. \nContact us for pricing information or to register your interest in the class.
