Fields of application for CFD
- Steady / unsteady flows
- Laminar / turbulent flows (incl. all kinds of turbulence models)
- Incompressible / compressible flows (transsonic, supersonic)
- Flow fields with (coupled) heat transfer (conduction, convection, radiation)
- Flows including chemical reactions (incl. combustion)
- Multi-phase flows (e.g. sprays, mixing processes, cavitation, condensation, evaporation, free-surface flows).
- Complex geometries (including moving meshes, e.g. cylinder oscillations in an engine)
- ... and of course any combinations!
