Model airflow, containment, and cooling strategies in hours instead of weeks. Achieve 35% cost savings with browser-based CFD simulation.
Validate cooling efficiency and prevent thermal failures with cloud-native CFD simulation and Engineering AI. Model complex airflow, temperature distribution, and high-density equipment loads to ensure SLA compliance. Whether you are retrofitting for AI workloads or designing greenfield sites, solve for space, power and cooling in the cloud.
Check Simulation Features
Test hundreds of data center cooling scenarios in minutes using AI surrogates. Rapidly compare CRAC/CRAH placements, airflow patterns, and containment options to identify the most energy-efficient design, then validate with high-fidelity CFD. SimScale AI reduces cooling optimization time from weeks to hours, helping you deliver optimized, compliant data centers faster.
Check AI FeaturesPredict and prevent hot air re-entrainment in complex hybrid environments, ensuring every kilowatt of cooling reaches its intended target. By de-risking cooling strategies before construction, you can safely raise supply temperatures to hit aggressive PUE targets, recover stranded power capacity, and guarantee that high-density hardware stays within ASHRAE H1 class compliance.
Accelerate permitting and protect high-value AI assets by virtually validating designs against ASHRAE 90.4 and H1 class envelopes before commissioning. Instead of conservative over-cooling, use cloud simulation to find optimal solutions, maximizing water temperatures for heat reuse while protecting hardware warranties.
Optimize cooling efficiency before construction to minimize energy waste. Identify hot spots, prevent air recirculation, and right-size CRAC units based on actual heat loads. Achieve lower PUE ratios and meet corporate sustainability goals with simulation-validated thermal designs that deliver measurable energy savings.
Optimize immersion cooling, direct-to-chip liquid-cooled systems including cold plates, and hybrid air-liquid architectures before building infrastructure. Test coolant flow rates, heat exchanger performance, and high-density rack configurations to ensure your design scales with AI and HPC workloads. Avoid stranded capacity and validate thermal strategies for tomorrow’s computing demands today.
Import models directly from Revit, AutoCAD, Fusion 360, Rhino, Onshape or any BIM/CAD software via neutral file formats. SimScale’s Engineering AI to accelerates your time-to-result and orchestrates workflows while adhering to your organization’s best practices for setup and reporting.
Design Management Group brought CFD simulation in-house with SimScale and cut project costs by 35% compared to outsourcing.
