District heating expertise across the whole network lifecycle
Who am I?
PhD in fluid mechanics and thermal engineering, with over 2 years of hands-on experience in thermo-hydraulic simulation of district heating networks. I work across the whole network lifecycle — sizing, extension, operational troubleshooting — with proven digital-validation experience, applicable regardless of which simulation software is used.

Proven model-vs-field validation experience, adaptable to any district heating simulation software.
A technical partner: Fluidit
Work carried out with Fluidit
For these studies, I draw on the technical support of experienced engineers who have worked on generation 2 to 5 district heating networks across Europe.
I also rely on Fluidit Heat, the simulation software developed by Fluidit, a Finnish company specialising in the modelling of urban district heating and cooling networks. The tool performs detailed thermo-hydraulic simulations – in real time as well as over long periods – for sizing installations (production units, pumps, pipes) and for operational support (supply temperature optimisation, scenario testing, backup plans).
This partnership lets me draw on skills and a robust tool, proven on large-scale networks, to run reliable studies regardless of the size of your network.
