Cooling analysis of aluminum coils

2024

Challenge

Conduct a study focused on optimizing the aluminum coil cooling system at a Novelis plant by analyzing temperature parameters, coil storage layout, and the cooling system. Additionally, generate computational dynamics (CFD) simulations that enable conceptual solutions for the system.

Mitsidi Performance

The Mitsidi team conducted technical visits to the Novelis cooling warehouse and proposed solutions to reduce cooling time, using variable analysis and CFD simulations.

Results

  • Creation of a CFD model of warehouse conditions;

  • 11 replicable conceptual solutions;

  • Theoretical solution that reduced cooling time by 37.9%.
