Simulation software, we can predict the volumes
of fresh air reaching each calf and the speed of
air inside the calf’s microclimate in the different
seasonal settings of Flap Duct®. These results
allow us to predict the efficacy of the system.
3D Visualization of
Entire Barns
One of the most useful aspects of our design
process is the visualization tools that bring our
concepts to life. Just like a fogging test in the
newly installed system, these tools provide
a stunning visual representation of how the
airflow will behave in the new structure. welcome
Using Unreal® Engine, a professional design
software, we create detailed 3D models of barns
that haven’t been built yet, and can then showcase
how the FLAP DUCT® system will be integrated
into both new and existing barns. Moreover, we
