About Us

Paraflow is a Canadian-based consultancy specialising in computational fluid dynamics (CFD), concept design and aerodynamics.

Years of experience in the automotive and aerospace sectors has provided the opportunity to understand and develop industry-leading techniques for large-scale, high-fidelity CFD models. Equipped with this, we have created optimised work-flows for small-scale, bespoke applications for a variety of industries.

CFD in a Nutshell

Often referred to as a virtual windtunnel, CFD is a technology used to simulate and analyse fluid flow, heat and mass transfer, chemical reactions and other related phenomena.

More Data, More Insight

Unlike experimental setups such as windtunnels, CFD is able to output a variety of information about the detailed physics of the problem.

This provides crucial insight, effectively revealing how and why a model is performing the way that it does. This in turn enables the ability to cycle through various design scenarios, and paves the way for rapid optimisation.

Save Time And Cost

Although experimental testing is certainly valuable, an approach relying solely upon it is limiting, expensive and time-consuming. Complementing these techniques (in some cases replacing them) with engineering simulation is becoming a crucial step of the design process in order to remain competitve.

How We Stand Out

Balanced Approach

We look for the optimal balance between best practices, academia and practicality to meet real-world industry requirements.

Communication

With the complex and high-fidelity nature of this industry, we place great emphasis on communication; from project definition right through till delivery of results.

Toolkit

Our CAE repertoire includes both open-source and state-of-the-art commercial software, giving us the ability to use the best tool for the job.
