Accurate Planning and Project Coordination
APEX Engineering provides modeling and simulation services as an a-la carte service, or as part of our comprehensive analysis and design services. We use Computational Fluid Dynamics (CFD) to evaluate a multitude of building environments. CFD is an advanced and accurate simulation software that can model real world challenges related to airflow, fluid flow and heat transfer.
We have access to various programs, including eQUEST, Trace 700, CAE PIPE, Pipe-Flo, EnergyPlus and OpenStudio to develop detailed models. We can utilize modeling/simulation to measure construction compliance with building codes and standards. We also can provide clients a comparative analysis of system options to ensure they make well informed decisions regarding efficiency.
