Learn more about Flownex:
One of the most common applications for Flownex is in the mining industry. Dealing with air handling, pumping, and slurries are fundamental capabilities in Flownex that have been used and improved for decades.
Air, water, and slurry are the lifeblood of any mine. They provide a safe and secure environment for machinery and workers and bring material to processing. Flownex was developed to handle the unique needs of the mining industry, along with Nuclear and Aerospace applications. Engineers use the tool to place and optimize pumps, compressors, pipes, valves, tanks, and heat exchangers in virtual models of existing mines or as a way to design future explorations.
Typical uses include:
One of the most important and challenging tasks of running an underground mine is safe and efficient ventilation. Flownex is used in a variety of ways to make sure dangerous gasses don’t build up and safe and cool air is provided for workers.
Typical applications include:
Getting compressed air at the right temperature to the right part of the mine becomes more challenging as the size of mines continues to increase. Flownex is an ideal tool to virtually prototype options, choose the proper equipment, and optimize controls and sensors.
Typical applications include:
Getting the right fluid to the right location at the right temperature is the goal of any mining refrigeration and heating system. Flownex’s extensive component library and easy-to-use interface make sizing and optimizing your solutions powerful and simple.
Some typical applications are:
Many key inventions from the Industrial Revolution started as ways to move water out of mines. Flownex continues that legacy of invention and creativity with extensive simulation capabilities for water management across a sight, from digging to extracting to processing.
Typical uses include:
“Flownex® gave new meaning to complex systems fluid flow analyses in our company.”

Both PADT and Flownex understand the unique needs, scale, and challenges of mining. Over the years, mining engineers have come to count on the complete toolset to design and optimize their fluid handling solutions. They also use it to create virtual mockups of their systems for training with digital twins.
