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

STEMe

Compared to the other two more traditional methods, one of which is solving complex equations by hand, CFD is the most cost-effective and efficient method, meaning it can be applied to a variety of engineering fields on a much larger scale. Finally, engineers will attempt to integrate these variable measurements into the physical prototype.
