Sil3x

FranceEngineering, Advisory & Professional Services

Sil3x is now available on NucFinder as a validated supplier.

SIL3X is a specialised engineering company focused on the modelling and simulation of complex energy systems, with strong expertise in the nuclear sector.
We help operators, reactor developers and engineering companies understand, design and optimise systems where thermal-hydraulics, fluid mechanics and heat transfer are critical.

Core Capabilities

system-level modelling
CFD
transient analysis
ventilation
cooling systems
multiphysics simulation

We support both existing nuclear facilities and new reactor concepts, including SMRs and advanced nuclear technologies.
Our approach combines detailed physical understanding, numerical simulation and custom software development.
This allows us to address complex engineering questions that often fall between traditional system studies and detailed CFD analysis.
We intervene from early concept development through design optimisation, verification, troubleshooting and technical expertise.
SIL3X is particularly suited to projects requiring agility, high technical depth and tailor-made modelling approaches.
As an independent engineering company, we provide objective analysis and can integrate efficiently with client and EPC engineering teams.
Our goal is simple: use modelling to reduce technical uncertainty and support robust engineering decisions.

Technopark Seeks Approval for Power Network Expansion in Kerala

Technopark has submitted a request to the Kerala State Electricity Regulatory Commission for approval of a ₹2.14 crore capital investment. This investment is designated for extending the power distribution network to support the QUAD IT infrastructure within Technopark Phase IV. The proposal focuses on distribution assets up to the high-tension system, excluding downstream low-tension installations and transformers.

The project is planned for a duration of 41 months. Technopark intends to fund 30% of the cost, approximately ₹0.64 crore, through equity, with the remaining 70%, or ₹1.50 crore, to be financed via bank loans. The expanded network is designed to serve infrastructure encompassing 8.5 lakh sq ft, with a connected load of 8.74 MVA and a projected maximum demand of 4.79 MVA.

The work will proceed in two stages. The initial stage, estimated at ₹1.26 crore, involves laying 1,600m of 11kV high-tension cable, installing a ring main unit, and setting up a 500kVA compact substation. The second stage, costing ₹0.88 crore, includes an additional ring main unit, high-tension panels, 395m of 11kV cable, and statutory payments. Technopark anticipates recovering the investment by the end of the sixth year, projecting an annualized return on investment of 28.23%.

NTPC Limited Seeks Sodium-Ion BESS Pilot Project Proposals

NTPC Limited has invited a global expression of interest (EOI) for a pilot grid-connected battery energy storage system (BESS) that will use sodium-ion technology. The primary objective of this pilot project is to assess the technology's performance, safety, reliability, and commercial viability under Indian operating conditions.

Applicants are invited to propose either a standardized BESS with a usable capacity of 100 kWh or a suitable capacity that effectively demonstrates their specific technology. Proposals will be evaluated based on criteria including the technology readiness level.

NTPC Limited will provide the necessary land within its premises for the pilot installation. Additionally, it will supply a 415 V low-tension feeder connection, auxiliary power, and support for obtaining statutory approvals. The selected applicant will be responsible for the design, manufacturing, supply, erection, testing, and commissioning of the BESS.

The pilot project may be installed at an existing NTPC thermal power station or an office building, offering flexibility in deployment. This initiative represents a step towards exploring advanced energy storage solutions for grid integration.
