Energy Modeling

GREENHOUSE_EFFICIENCY // THERMAL_DYNAMICS

Smart Climate Control

Optimizing the energetic footprint of controlled environment agriculture (CEA). Through HPC-powered Computational Fluid Dynamics (CFD) and light-field calculations, operational costs are reduced by up to 30% while maximizing photosynthetic rates.

[ENERGY_EFFICIENCY]: +32.5%
[CO2_EMISSIONS]: -18.2%
[THERMAL_STABILITY]: 99.1%
[GRID_SYNC]: ACTIVE (RENEWABLE_PRIORITY)

HPC Simulation Scope

Precise energetic control requires massive parallel processing power to solve complex heat transfer and fluid equations:

  • CFD AIRFLOW TURBULENCE MODELING
  • SPECTRAL RADIOSITY SIMULATION
  • MODEL PREDICTIVE CONTROL (MPC)
  • TRANSPIRATION & LATENT HEAT FLUX
  • THERMAL BRIDGE ANALYSIS (Finite Element Method)
