Companies capable of delivering sophisticated engineering solutions that involve the modelling of droplet dynamics under various test conditions will find this procurement particularly relevant. Businesses with experience in developing compatible processing codes with ANSYS Fluent CFD software and MATLAB for simulation purposes will have a competitive advantage in future tendering opportunities within this sector.

## Notice

The objective of this procurement exercise is to create and deliver a Computational Fluid Dynamics ("CFD") model of the Rain Erosion Test Rig (and all associated processing codes) which is: Capable of modelling the droplet outcomes for each of the released droplets during a set of defined test conditions, to define the droplet impact locations, vectors and intensities on the sample in a pictorial and numerical format. Can model the droplet outcomes for other sets of defined test conditions from the full range of test parameter variables including rotational speeds, droplet release configuration, droplet sizes, droplet release heights, sample geometries, number of droplets and test water temperatures. Is compatible with ANSYS Fluent CFD code. Processing codes shall be in MATLAB
