DLR Group, an integrated design firm, uses simulation to support the design of sustainable and high-performance buildings. The case study outlines how the firm evaluates energy use, HVAC behavior, airflow, and pedestrian wind conditions using computational fluid dynamics (CFD) and other methods. It explains the shift toward cloud-based simulation to manage multi-physics analysis and coordinate work across project teams. Project examples show how airflow, thermal conditions, and comfort criteria were examined to guide design decisions.
