Colt technologies for Colt Conditions
Colt experts can rely on the support of the company's Research and Knowledge Centres when providing customers design advice on the systems that will achieve the best performance for their building.
Measurements to create a Colt internal climate
Colt's Research and Knowledge Centres uses the latest technologies to carry out studies in the fields of thermal and acoustic climate, airflow and pressure, air quality, light quality, and safety. Having documented detailed measurement results, Colt experts are able to identify possible issues and recommend improvements and solutions. The detailed analysis enables them to design tailor made concepts fully suited to the situation, providing systems that are guaranteed to perform as required.
Simulations for optimal solutions
Colt uses Computational Fluid Dynamics (CFD) to simulate flows and heat transfer within buildings. This tool enables Colt experts to predict flows and transfer of energy within a specific building in different situations. The CFD tool can also be loaded with the data resulting from thermal imaging, which identifies sources of heat within a building, to create simulations of flows and heat transfer and develop solutions to reduce excessive heat. CFD analysis can be used to develop the best smoke control, ventilation and climate control systems to achieve the ideal Colt conditions: a comfortable, safe and energy efficient internal climate.
Analysing for compliance
Colt's Research and Knowledge Centres also provides a measurement and advisory service for companies requiring a detailed analysis of their building's performance to document compliance with regulatory or mandatory reporting requirements.
