Multiphase Flows in Real Time
Our patented AI technology, developed from NASA-funded R&D, essentially eliminates uncertainties in the metering and comprehension of many classes of multiphase flows.
The technology works in any acceleration field, and is therefore applicable to mobile systems (e.g., cars, aircraft, spacecraft), as well as stationary systems (e.g., data centers). ​​​​

Two-Phase Thermal Management
We call it Heterogeneous Flow Interpreter Transducer (HFIT). It exploits artificial intelligence to make ultra-high frequency instantaneous measurements of two-phase flows with high resolution spatial accuracy, as opposed to the time-averaged and volume-averaged measurements of other sensors.
​
Verified thermal management applications concern optically transparent two-phase fluids like cryogens, refrigerants, and water. The HFIT measures compositional behaviors of phases, voids, and particulates in a flow. It quantifies in real-time dynamically changing sizes, distributions, velocities, deposition and reaction rates, and fission and coalescence rates. THis capability far exceeds the capabilities of capacitance, ultrasonic, and other electronic sensors. HFIT applies first-principles, or empirical analyses, to your specifications, to dynamically quantify flow physics, including thermodynamic quality, heat flux, pressure drop, and thermal margin.
The HFIT is acceleration field agnostic, and therefore is accurate for mobile systems such as automobiles, aircraft, and spacecraft that experience acceleration field transients due to motion and gravity.​​
