We based our top ten list of best fluid dynamics inventions on a combination of the overall impact of the invention and the depth of fluids science required, asking ourselves, "What would have been the effect on society if each development had never occurred." 

If you are reading this, chances are you are just getting started with CFD. Here are a few straightforward and candid thoughts based on my 15 years of experience on things to consider as you move forward with CFD.  I hope some of them can help you avoid bumps along the way.

This article addresses the role of external simulation service providers in a corporate engineering strategy amidst the rapidly growing complexity of products and product development cycles currently driving an on-going "simulation revolution."

I don't know about The 12 Tanks Puzzle being a "genius test", but you can test your fluid dynamics intuition against our CFD simulations.

Quality Assurance (QA) in Computational Fluid Dynamics (CFD) is becoming ever more critical as industry adopts simulation based product development at increasing rates.  Here we discuss the three pillars of a sound QA program:  Software Reliability, User Knowhow, and Protocols.

Deaerators present an obvious challenge to CFD technology due to the complex interactions between steam, water and surrounding air.
