Description
Computational Fluid Dynamics (CFD) allows us to develop 3D models and find numerical solutions of thermal and fluid flow problems in confined spaces. Since 1993, CFD has been used at CERN, in particular in the TS-CV group, to solve several problems on thermo-fluid dynamics, especially related to LHC experiments during their development, design and construction phases. 3D models can be analysed numerically reducing the effort required for prototype testing, thus saving time, money and allowing for additional investigation and design optimisation.
Increases in computer power and the next generation of 'Grid' computational systems are giving and will give greater opportunities to continue developing this science/technique.
The CFD team already supports many CERN design and construction units in the development of engineering solutions, especially for the LHC experiments and CNGS project. A number of different cases will be presented and discussed to illustrate the potential applications for the AT Department.
