Where is PHOENICS used and who uses it

PHOENICS is used in every branch of engineering and science in which fluid flow plays a key role.  PHOENICS is a proven, reliable, cost-effective and easy-to-use tool which simulates processes involving fluid flow, heat or mass transfer, chemical reaction, and combustion in engineering equipment and the environment.  

PHOENICS has been utilized by Aerospace and Mechanical Engineers for aerodynamic vehicle design, plume analysis, wake flows, and all aspects of fluid flow characterization, including its ability to evaluate traditional aerodynamic forces, including coefficients of drag and lift.  Its chemical kinetics capability also enables us to perform research across all fluid flow regimes.  

However, who else uses PHOENICS.  It may also be utilized for fluid-solid interactions and tailored for addtional capabilities and some additional uses are below:

Architects, Builders, and HVAC Engineers PHOENICS helps architects, builders, and HVAC Engineers to determine the characteristics of their designs, including:  º Wind effects and characteristics º Design safety analysis º Heating and ventilation optimization PHOENICS can model steady or transient effects of conduction, convection, radiation, buoyancy, turbulence, and fire/smoke spreading.	Environmentalists and Physiologists PHOENICS helps Environmentalists and Physiologists to analyze the spread of pollution and diseases and therefore ensure intelligent design to reduce emissions at the point of generation, as well as: º discharges into atmosphers and bodies of water º Assessment of physiological properties and exposure assessements º Optimization of processes for product design
Electronics and Semiconductor Engineers PHOENICS provides Electronics and Semiconductor Engineers with an integrated Virtual Reality environment for modeling the cooling requirements of components and the behavior of a wide range of CVD reactors.	Combustion Engineers PHOENICS provides Combustion Engineers with a wide range of combustion models, including coal, gas, wood, and oil together with CHEMKIN and additional modeling equations.  It can be used to design and optimized industrial plants and burner efficiencies.
