About Hakim

Freelance CFD Engineer specialized in hydraulic and flow systems, with hands-on experience on real industrial projects (water treatment, desalination, process engineering).

I support engineering consultancies and industrial companies in the validation, optimization, and risk mitigation of hydraulic designs, prior to fabrication or commissioning.

My approach is engineering- and decision-driven: CFD is not an end in itself, but a tool to identify dead zones, recirculation areas, pressure losses, excessive velocities, and operational risks.

Core skills:

CFD simulations (Ansys Fluent / CFX)

Internal flows, piping networks, pipelines, tanks, and hydraulic chambers

Species transport, mixing, multiphase flows (project-dependent)

Pre-dimensioning and technical validation of design solutions

CFD-oriented CAD modeling (SolidWorks)

I work both as short-term support and project reinforcement, delivering clear communication, actionable results, and physically consistent, engineering-grade analyses.

Available for short assignments or peak-load support.
