Race Cars and Missile Tests: An Overview of Computational Fluid Dynamics

STEMe

But these tests aren’t any ordinary tests—they usually involve a complex process known as computational fluid dynamics. Computational fluid dynamics (CFD) has its roots in the Navier-Stokes equations, a set of equations developed from 1822 to 1850 that describes the momentum balance of Newtonian fluids. But how does CFD work?
