ZAZULA offers Mixing Application Support through;
Computational Fluid Dynamics
Zazula Utilizes SPX state-of-the-art Computational Fluid Dynamics (CFD) technology producing computerized models of mixing systems for analysis of flow distribution, mixing rates and other critical processing parameters.
We can duplicate your process in SPX’s fully-equipped testing laboratory, optimize it and give you detailed documentation on the equipment, technology and processing parameters.
PROCESS OPTIMIZATION, UPGRADES AND RETROFITS
Zazula with SPX can use CFD technology to model your current process and identify mixing inadequacies, such as low-velocity areas, circulation zones, staging and anomalies in the fluid flow. System parameters can be adjusted and tested – quickly and easily – until the optimum efficiency is achieved.
