Computational Fluid Dynamics

Computational Fluid Dynamics (CFD) is a branch of fluid mechanics that utilizes numerical analysis and algorithms to solve and analyze problems involving fluid flows. CFD employs computational techniques to simulate the behavior of fluids and their interactions with surfaces and boundaries. It is characterized by its ability to model complex fluid dynamics scenarios, including turbulence, heat transfer, and chemical reactions. Common use cases for CFD include aerospace engineering, automotive design, and environmental engineering, where it helps in optimizing designs and predicting performance under various conditions.
