Conclusions
• Computational Fluid Dynamics is an important tool in
many branches of science and engineering.
• Results are typically n-D, over 3-D plus time.
• CFD calculations require simultaneous solution of many
sets of differential equations, typically involving 4th order
Runge-Kutta in 3-D space.
• Visualization of CFD data is an important and challenging
problem, requiring clever use of all available visualization
tools and skills.
