Demystifying computational fluid dynamics for water and wastewater professionals
By Bernardo Majano, P. Eng., and Geneviève Kenny, P. Eng., R.V. Anderson Associates Limited
ABSTRACT
Computational Fluid Dynamics (CFD) is the application and approximate solution of fluid dynamics equations to predict the behaviour of a fluid within a specified boundary. The aim of this article is to give water and wastewater professionals an overview of the basic concepts of CFD modeling, so that they will have a better understanding of how this technology can be applied to their industry.
