Recent Efforts for Credible CFD Simulations in China

Abstract EN

In this paper some recent efforts for credible computational fluid dynamics (CFD) simulations in China are reviewed.

The most important effort is that, following similar activities in the West such as ECARP and AIAA Drag Prediction Workshops, a series of workshops on credible CFD simulations had been initiated.

These workshops were with ambitions to assess the status of CFD in China.

Another major effort is an ongoing project to establish a software platform for studying the credibility of CFD solvers and performing credible CFD simulations.

The platform, named WiseCFD, was designed to implement a seamless CFD process and to circumvent tedious repeating manual operations.

It had also been a powerful job manager for CFD with capabilities to support plug and play (PnP) solver integration as well as distributed or parallel computations.

Some future work on WiseCFD was proposed, and also envisioned was how WiseCFD and the European QNET-CFD Knowledge Base can benefit mutually.
