Built for Safety,
Built for Performance
At Ecoonex, advanced engineering is at the core of every solution we deliver. We combine state-of-the-art CFD and structural analysis with hands-on testing in our own production facilities. This integrated approach allows us to understand the physics inside our equipment in exceptional detail—flow distribution, pressure drop, thermal behaviour, mechanical stresses, condensation profiles, and fouling tendencies.
By validating every simulation with real-world measurements, we ensure that our heat exchangers perform exactly as promised in terms of efficiency, durability, and safety. The result: reliable, high-performance systems engineered to thrive in the harshest flue-gas environments.
At Ecoonex, we have the capability to apply advanced CFD analysis when a project benefits from deeper insight into flow behaviour. We use these simulations primarily to study flue-gas and air movement in the ducting connected to our heat exchangers. This helps us evaluate flow quality, identify potential problem areas, and optimise the inlet and outlet geometry whenever required. By analysing the ducting as part of the overall system, we can support clients with improved designs, troubleshoot performance issues, and ensure that the heat exchanger operates under stable and efficient conditions.
With CFD we can:
- Evaluate and improve flow distribution entering the exchanger
- Identify risks of jetting, recirculation, or uneven velocity profiles
- Optimise pressure drop in ducting sections
- Reduce the potential for fouling, corrosion, and acid-mist formation
- Analyse elbows, transitions, dampers, turning vanes when needed
- Design smoother, low-loss flow paths where required
Our heat exchangers operate in environments where temperature, pressure, vibration, and thermal expansion must all be carefully managed. When required, we can perform detailed structural and mechanical calculations to verify the integrity of critical components and ensure that the design performs safely throughout its entire operating range. These analyses help us confirm compliance with relevant codes, evaluate stresses in extreme cases, and support clients with documentation for projects that demand additional engineering validation.
- Verify maximum safety under all expected operating conditions
- Check compliance with international and project-specific design codes
- Evaluate thermal expansion, stress levels, and deformation
- Assess long-term durability in demanding flue-gas environments
Innovation is a key part of how we develop our heat-exchanger technologies. In our R&D program, we combine CFD studies with real-scale testing in our own shop whenever it adds value. This allows us to verify new ideas, understand detailed behavior such as condensation or flow distribution, and improve the performance and reliability of each new generation of equipment. By using both virtual and physical testing methods, we ensure that our developments are backed by measurable results and practical experience.
With R&D and testing we can:
- Validate new heat-exchanger geometries
- Study condensation behaviour and temperature profiles in detail
- Confirm performance improvements under realistic conditions
- Continuously enhance efficiency, reliability, and safety
