"Computational Fluid Dynamics (CFD) has over the past few years become a very important part of the design process in many areas of engineering, for example in the aircraft industry for the design of airframes and engines, in the nuclear industry for the design of cooling systems and in environmental science to predict and monitor pollutant transport and dispersion. The importance of CFD to both the industrial and academic community can be measured by the large number of research groups in this area. The SERC noted this growth of CFD activities and supported the work of these groups through a CFD support programme based in the CIS Department at RAL."
