With scientific knowledge, mathematics, ingenuity and plain common sense we clearly understand the issues and develop solutions for technical problems.
- Egress assessment
- Smoke modelling
- Fire hazard and ‘design’ fire assessment
- Quantitative and qualitative risk assessment
- Independent peer review
Sound mechanical engineering is at the core of almost everything we do.
- Mining industries
- Processing industries
- Petrochemical industries
- Materials handling
- Plant, equipment and product design
We use CFD as a tool to assist engineering assessment of complex problems.
- Ansys Fluent
- 500+ CPU cores
- Plant effectiveness
- Dispersion
- Mixing
Specialised areas
Problems that require a back-to-fundamentals approach to characterise air and contaminant flows and other thermodynamic phenomena.
Site testing service, generating cold and hot smoke to visualise flow and demonstrate smoke control capability on commissioning.
Dust and fume control including mechanical ventilation, dust collection, scrubbing, and fume extraction.
Prediction of stack plume behaviour and the dispersion of temperatures, velocities, gases, or particulates using fluid dynamics analyses.
Expertise in livestock heat stress and management including ventilation and psychometrics, modelling of animal susceptibility.
Management of system dynamics and control for complex systems from field measurements and calibration to complex mathematical models.
As mechanical and fire engineers we serve as expert witnesses that bring current industry knowledge and understanding to complex issues.
Stacey Agnew provides specialist mechanical engineering and applied fluid mechanics services to the transport and industrial sectors in the following key areas:
- Site investigations
- Concept development and optioneering
- Detailed feasibility studies and scoping analyses
- Detailed analysis, design, and specification
- Independent peer review or verification
- Risk assessments
- Test and measurement including data acquisition
- Commissioning planning and verification
- Forensic engineering and expert witness advice
We have worked within the full range of project delivery frameworks. In terms of project type, Stacey Agnew has proven experience in:
- Contractor’s tender design focussing on innovation and an appreciation of civil construction requirements to minimise civil/structural costs and M&E whole-of-life costs
- Full design and specification of ventilation and fire life systems for new or refurbished infrastructure
- Construction support for temporary ventilation and fire life safety measures
- Feasibility studies and value engineering using our depth of knowledge to rapidly isolate and evaluate optimal solutions
- Evaluation and optimisation of existing systems to meet new requirements, optimise performance, improve fire life safety etc
- Technical, contractual and administrative support to client organisations for the documentation, and tendering of all types of contract
