Overview Iopara is a
consulting company specialized in providing expert services in the field of applied
aerodynamics, wind energy and wind turbine design, aircraft and wind turbine
icing prediction as well as aircraft hot-air and electro-mechanical
anti-icing simulations.
The
founder, Dr. Ion Paraschivoiu, has over 35
years of experience in conducting research, teaching and in providing
services for major companies and research centers in USA and Europe on
problems related to wind turbine aerodynamics, performance prediction and
optimal design, aircraft icing and anti-icing. Dr. Paraschivoiu has won many industry and
academic awards for his research and publications. Iopara offers expert
knowledge in fluid dynamics and applied aerodynamics, particularly in wind
turbine and aircraft aerodynamics.
Clients include manufacturers and researchers seeking to perform
calculations, improve performance, cut operational costs and study
environmental impacts of their system designs. Iopara also provides customized training
for professionals and corporations seeking to advance their level of
knowledge in the field of analytical modeling, CFD, dynamic stall phenomena,
drag and laminar flow, icing conditions and anti-icing systems. Dr. Paraschivoiu developed world renowned simulation
and analysis software that provides the ability to define and optimize
configurations for H-type Vertical Axis Wind Turbines. CAARDAV’s
Double-Multiple streamtube model and genetic algorithm optimizer predicts
aerodynamic characteristics of straight and inclined blade designs, supports 1D and 3D wind models and supports
skew wind conditions for rooftop mounted simulations. Additional modules provide 2D and 3D
analysis and optimization capabilities applied to aircraft icing and
anti-icing simulations. |
