Eliminate Significant Uncertainty in the Management of Multiphase Flows
Our patented AI technology 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 both stationary (i.e., traditional) systems and mobile systems (e.g., aircraft and spacecraft systems). Since it is agnostic to gravity, it also works on orbit, i.e., in microgravity.

Thermal Management
Our Heterogeneous Flow Interpreter Transducer (HFIT) exploits artificial intelligence implemented machine vision 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, including dynamically changing sizes, distributions, velocities, deposition and reaction rates, and fission and coalescence rates, far exceeding the capabilities of capacitance, ultrasonic, and other electronic sensors. HFIT also applies first-principles or empirical analyses 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.
​
Broad applications include electronics cooling systems.
