Camfil has launched a corrosion control monitor called the AirImage-COR that monitors corrosion in real time. The technology uses electrical resistance (ER) sensors to help mitigate the risk of corrosion. 

Data centres, wastewater treatment facilities, petrochemical refineries and renewable energy plants all rely on electrical equipment for smooth operations. Corrosion can lead to unscheduled downtime, costly repairs, loss of revenue and increased safety risks. 

Thi Quynh Nguyen Mazo, regional product manager for industrial molecular filtration at Camfil, says monitoring corrosion requires accuracy and reliability – and the AirImage-COR offers both. 

“The AirImage-COR ER sensors have been qualified in a corrosion chamber to the ISA standard by injecting corrosive gases at different environmental conditions,” she says. 

“The most accurate sensors were selected. The selection was based on the evaluation of a variety of sensors with different non-conductive substrates and metal track deposition technologies.” 

The AirImage-COR has been designed to offer a user-friendly solution that accurately monitors corrosion, temperature, relative humidity and pressure in real time via remote access through the progressive web application.

Computational fluid dynamics modelling of ventilation in road tunnels: enhancing air quality and safety

Computational fluid dynamics modelling of ventilation in road tunnels: enhancing air quality and safety

Ventilation units within vehicle tunnels play a pivotal role in ensuring safety and optimal air quality for
occupants. These units are used to assist with propelling air from one end to the opposite end of the tunnel.
Computational fluid dynamics (CFD) has emerged as an invaluable design tool for engineers and stakeholders,
offering simulated insights and data to optimise safety and efficiency in tunnel projects. This paper
emphasises the advantages of CFD for road tunnel ventilation design, showcases a case study involving
impulse fans, and highlights the positive effects on project costs and overall tunnel ventilation performance.
