Análisis de la ventilación en la sala fitness del centro Mais Que Auga Navia, a fin de evaluar la idoneidad del sistema de ventilación forzada existente y las prácticas de uso de este, evaluando si procede las mejoras aplicables.

El trabajo incluye mediciones en dicha sala y el desarrollo de un modelo virtual completo de este espacio, analizando mediante simulación CFD diferentes escenarios de uso.

The client needed to redesign the layout of a hydroelectric power plant’s piping network to incorporate a new discharge pipe. The main challenge was to design the branch connection into the existing penstock, selecting:

• The most suitable location
• The optimal connection geometry

The objective was to minimize head losses and local overpressures, while ensuring that the new line could transport the required flow rate without generating critical maximum or minimum pressures that could compromise system integrity.

Additionally, it was necessary to analyze the behavior of the discharge jet after passing through a hollow jet valve, as it would impact a nearby wall. The impact force had to be quantified in order to structurally validate the receiving element.
