A small gallery of CFD norway’s projects

Since the introduction of the super computer in the1980’s the use of Computational Fluid Dynamics (CFD) for solving fluid flow problems has increased dramatically as a numerical tool in many areas of engineering. The pictorial overview below has focused on space transportation systems, aeronautics, sport aerodynamics, building aerodynamics and surface transportation.
