Simulate Fluidized Beds and Fluid-Particle Systems with Barracuda Virtual Reactor

Despite the best efforts of traditional engineering, understanding the internals of industrial-scale reactors can be difficult, if not impossible. Tools like Barracuda Virtual Reactor, however, offer engineers the ability to look inside their systems virtually. Barracuda Virtual Reactor is a physics-based engineering software package that simulates the three-dimensional, fluid-particle hydrodynamics and thermochemistry in fluidized bed reactors and other fluid-particle systems. By understanding the intricate internal mechanics of their systems, researchers and engineers are enabled to explore a range of ideas, reduce physical testing costs, and minimize development risk. For clients who operate industrial units, Barracuda Virtual Reactor furthermore allows engineers to determine the root cause of underperformance, reduce the risk of changes through virtual testing, and optimize solutions.
