TerrantaFlow: High-Performance Reactive Flow Modeling for the Subsurface
TerrantaFlow is a next-generation simulation engine designed to model complex subsurface fluid and reactive transport processes across 2D and 3D geological systems. Built for performance, flexibility, and scientific accuracy, it enables users to explore how fluids move, mix, and react with rocks under realistic geological conditions.
Whether you’re working in mineral systems, geothermal energy, natural hydrogen, CCS, or groundwater studies, TerrantaFlow delivers the tools you need to simulate key processes such as fluid flow, heat transport, chemical reactions, and mineral transformations at reservoir to basin scales.
With a modular, data-driven architecture and seamless integration with TerrantaLab, users can define custom fluid compositions, rock properties, and reaction kinetics—then visualize and analyze how these variables evolve through time and space.
