CAES is a high-technology engineering consulting group of M/E Engineering, P.C. providing analysis and design services to clients world wide. We specialize in the use of numerical methods (CFD or Computational Fluid Dynamics) to calculate and visualize air flow both inside and outside buildings. These analysis services have been successfully applied to labs, fume hoods, clean rooms, surgical areas and many other building spaces requiring some degree of cleanliness or indoor air quality. Additionally, CAES regularly performs wind wake analysis, wind load calculations, electronics cooling analysis and studies on other classical engineering problems involving fluid flow and heat transfer.

M/E Engineering's CAES Group is now one of the premiere analysis organizations in the world that applies Computational Fluid Dynamics (CFD) to practical ventilation projects in a wide variety of building types. While the bulk of our studies are performed on high-tech buildings such as labs, Research and Development facilities or clean rooms, we also evaluate wind wakes, office environments, stadiums, very large enclosed buildings, co-generation plants and hospital containment areas.

CFD

CFD is used to calculate air movement, temperatures, and chemical or particulate migration in any indoor or outdoor environment. By using CFD early in the design cycle, architects and engineers may optimize the ventilation systems in their buildings providing both a healthy environment for the inhabitants and potential energy savings due to mechanical system improvements. The results of the investigations are produced in 3-dimensional color illustrations, either on paper or in various electronic forms.

Our Mission:

The primary mission of the CAES Group is to make the latest and most accurate computer analysis technology available to clients who do not possess the capability or resources to perform the analyses themselves. We provide a timely and cost effective service to assess ventilation related problems, environmental impact issues and the mechanical integrity of commercial products. Today CAES services large and small businesses throughout the U.S. and World.
