California CFD and engineering consulting

CFD, thermal analysis, and engineering review

Computational fluid dynamics (CFD), thermal analysis, and independent engineering review for California building and facility projects. Vexo investigates airflow and temperature behavior, compares design options, and examines technical feasibility through focused engineering studies.

Conceptual airflow and thermal analysis within a technical building section.

What the service covers

What we can help with

CFD and airflow analysis

Airflow, pressure, and ventilation modeling to investigate performance and compare design options under defined operating conditions.

Thermal analysis

Evaluation of temperature distribution and the effects of heat sources, equipment, and operating conditions, with findings assessed against the study’s agreed performance criteria.

Feasibility and due diligence

Technical review of project information, constraints, and alternatives, with clear findings, stated assumptions, and identification of issues requiring further evaluation.

Peer review and technical reporting

Independent review of a defined engineering scope, supported by technical findings, graphics, comparisons, and reports tailored to the assignment.

Project fit

Projects we support

Airflow and ventilation studies
Thermal-performance questions
Industrial and technical spaces
Design-option comparisons
Technical due diligence
Independent peer review

Engineering scope

Typical deliverables

Depending on the agreed scope: a summary of inputs and assumptions, analysis results, visualizations, option comparisons, findings, recommendations, and a technical report.

Initial review

What to share first

  • Question to resolveThe condition, design option, or performance concern being investigated.
  • Inputs and assumptionsGeometry, operating conditions, available data, and evaluation criteria.
  • Required findingsThe comparisons, explanations, or recommendations needed for the project decision.

Common questions

Before you get started

When is CFD useful?

CFD can help when a project team needs to understand airflow, pressure, or temperature patterns that are difficult to assess with conventional calculations alone. The study should address a defined question or comparison.

What information is needed to start a study?

Typical inputs include geometry, operating conditions, equipment information, and the criteria used to evaluate results. We review what is available and identify missing inputs or assumptions before defining the study.

Can you compare several design options?

Yes. The scope identifies the options or scenarios to compare and the criteria for evaluating them. Additional scenarios or changes to the inputs may require an updated scope.

How should the results be used?

Results support decisions within the study’s stated assumptions and limitations. They do not guarantee approval or field performance, which also depend on the complete project and actual operating conditions.
