COMPUTATIONAL FLUID DYNAMICS (CFD)

 

The CFD Lab houses several workstations (Digital ALFA/SGI) and Pentium PC's, and is dedicated to the development and application of CFD software. The lab also houses a 85-node Beowulf PC cluster (85, 1100 MHz PC's) for CFD simulations. Codes developed in-house include Reynolds-Averaged-Navier Stokes Solvers, Direct Numerical Simulation Codes, and Large Eddy Simulation Codes. Applications of interest include turbine blade cooling, stirred tank reactors, gas turbine combustors, and heat exchangers.
