Thule, L-3, Hoshizaki Engineering, Nextivity, and other businesses across North America are benefiting from strategic CFD consulting and analysis

Framingham, MA ― August 28, 2013 — Rand Worldwide (OTCBB: RWWI), a global leader in providing technology solutions to organizations with engineering design and information technology requirements, today announces the expansion of IMAGINiT Technologies’ Computational Fluid Dynamics (CFD) Analysis Consulting group. To manage growing customer demand, the CFD Analysis Consulting group welcomes Craig Paxton, Doug Mosemann and Greg Keller to the North American team.

“With our proven ability to deliver tangible business value and clear ROI, our CFD consulting services are in demand,” says Jason Pfeiffer, director CFD Consulting, IMAGINiT Technologies. “With these additions to both our engineering and business development sectors, our national, dedicated CFD analysis team is ready to expand our consulting services to identify and offer more companies flow and thermal insight that improves designs and decreases time to market.”

Tangible Business Benefits

The methodology that IMAGINiT’s CFD Consulting group applies when conducting computational fluid dynamics analysis and thermal simulation services uncovers design insight that helps businesses make better designs faster, grow revenues and increase profits. One example is how IMAGINiT collaborated with Thule to create an improved aerodynamic cargo box. The final product reduced drag by 35 percent and the product was so successful that Thule created the trademark Thule AeroNose™. The complete Thule case study can be read here.
