bulletComet Shoemaker-Levy 9  From July 16 through July 22, 1994, fragments of Comet P/Shoemaker-Levy 9 collided with Jupiter, with dramatic effect. This was the first collision of two solar system bodies ever to be observed. Shoemaker-Levy 9 consists of 20 discernable fragments with diameters estimated at up to 2 kilometers, which impacted the planet at 60 km/s. The impacts resulted in plumes many thousands of kilometers high, hot "bubbles" of gas in the atmosphere, and large dark "scars" on the atmosphere which have lifetimes at least on the order of weeks. Smaller bits and dust continue to impact the planet. Shoemaker-Levy 9 is gone, but as the Earth- and space-based images show, it did not go quietly.

bulletWhat is Computational Fluid Dynamics?  Computational Fluid Dynamics (CFD) has grown from a mathematical curiosity to become an essential tool in almost every branch of fluid dynamics, from aerospace propulsion to weather prediction. This is mirrored by the CFD activities at Cranfield, where individual research programmes together embrace a broad portfolio of research and teaching across the University.  Throughout the University Computational Fluid Dynamics has a presence at all levels, from taught Masters courses, through post-graduate research degrees to post-graduate, professional and academic research positions.  The menu to the left and below will allow you to discover more about CFD at Cranfield.
bulletIntroduction to Computational Fluid Dynamics, by CHAM  CFD is predicting what will happen, quantitatively, when fluids flow, often with the complications of:
bulletsimultaneous flow of heat,
bulletmass transfer (eg perspiration, dissolution),
bulletphase change (eg melting, freezing, boiling),
bulletchemical reaction (eg combustion, rusting),
bulletmechanical movement (eg of pistons, fans, rudders),
bulletstresses in and displacement of immersed or surrounding solids.
bulletCFD 101, by Flow Science  Software packages for fluid flow and heat transfer analysis come in many forms. At the very least, these packages differ greatly in their physical approximations and numerical solution techniques, which makes the selection of a suitable package a challenging proposition. The following discussion covers some important items to consider when choosing simulation software.
