Industries We Serve

We focus where thermal, radiative, and electromagnetic physics decide whether the hardware works. Across three industries, we bring the same first-principles depth to the problems that standard tools and generalist firms struggle with.

Fusion & Advanced Energy

Fusion and advanced-energy hardware runs at the limits of materials and physics. Components face extreme heat flux, intense electromagnetic loads, and radiation, and the modeling has to be research-grade to be trusted. This is where our near-field radiative and EM-thermal depth matters most.

What We Model
First-wall and divertor heat flux
Plasma-facing component thermal-structural response
HTS magnet thermal behavior and quench
Pulsed electromagnetic-thermal loads on coils and conductors
Electrode thermal response and erosion
Thermophotovoltaic (TPV) emitter efficiency and near-field radiative transfer
First-wall heat flux HTS magnet thermal EM-thermal Electrode erosion TPV / near-field radiative
Fusion reactor hardware

Batteries & Energy Storage

Next-generation cells and large-format storage live or die on coupled electrochemical, thermal, and mechanical behavior. The failure modes that matter most, such as separator cracking, thermal runaway, and interface stress, sit exactly at those couplings, where single-physics tools fall short.

What We Model
Coupled electrochemical-thermal behavior of cells, stacks, and packs
Separator and interface stress under stack pressure
Fast-charge thermal response
Thermal-runaway initiation and propagation
Module- and system-scale thermal management
Long-duration storage thermal behavior
Thermal-mechanical Fast-charge thermal Runaway propagation Module thermal Long-duration storage
Battery cell stack

Data Center Cooling

As rack densities climb toward the megawatt, cooling has become a core engineering problem. Whether the approach is cold plates, CDUs, or immersion, the performance claims need defensible CFD behind them, validated against real hardware.

What We Model
Single- and two-phase cold-plate CFD, including boiling and dryout margin
CDU and rear-door heat exchanger flow and thermal
Single-phase and two-phase immersion
Flow distribution and hot-spot analysis
Rack-to-row heat rejection at scale
Validation against client bench data
Two-phase CFD Cold plates CDUs Immersion Flow distribution
Data center cooling hardware
