VTT Technical Research Centre of Finland offers AI-assisted CFD simulations that incorporate experimental fluid flow data to improve accuracy and efficiency. These simulations are ideal for industries requiring precise fluid dynamics analysis, such as absorbent product design.
VTT Technical Research Centre of Finland presents an advanced AI-assisted computational fluid dynamics (CFD) simulation service designed to enhance the accuracy and efficiency of fluid flow analysis. By integrating artificial intelligence with traditional CFD methods, this solution addresses the challenges of simulating complex fluid interactions with surfaces. The approach reduces computational time and improves precision by incorporating experimental rheological data and leveraging Design of Experiments (DoE) methodologies. This innovation is particularly suited for industries where fluid dynamics play a critical role, such as the development of absorbent products.
The AI-assisted CFD simulation technology is at TRL 6, indicating that it has been validated in a relevant environment. The service has been successfully utilized in numerous customer and jointly-funded projects, demonstrating its efficacy and practical application potential.
VTT Technical Research Centre of Finland is a state-owned applied research organization headquartered in Espoo with operations across six Finnish cities. Co-located in the Otaniemi innovation district with Aalto University, VTT provides shared cleanrooms, extensive testbeds, and industrial piloting that move concepts from lab to demonstration. Dedicated piloting facilities in Espoo, including the Bioruukki process chemistry pilot centre, enable safe scale‑up and customer co-development. Research is supported by competitive European and national funding alongside contract R&D with companies. Commercialization is supported by a dedicated tech transfer function and VTT LaunchPad, where VTT Holding can co‑invest to accelerate spinouts and partnerships.
