The past few years have seen a surge of enthusiasm from various engineering product companies to implement design simulation tests during various phases of product development to stay competitive in the market. This has consequently led to a greater need for proficient CFD professionals, creating an attractive career path for engineers hoping to build a career in the captivating field of heat transfer and fluid flow.
This article aims to provide an overview of CFD (Computational Fluid Dynamics) engineering and delve into the job roles and responsibilities of a CFD engineer and the skills and qualifications required to excel in the field. We will explore the role of a CFD engineer in greater detail and discuss how they can use their knowledge and expertise to benefit their organization and industry.
CFD, or Computational Fluid Dynamics, is the practice of analysing fluid flows using numerical solution methods. This powerful tool can decipher complex problems involving fluid-fluid, fluid-solid, and fluid-gas interactions, proving especially useful in engineering fields like aerodynamics and hydrodynamics, where lift, drag, pressure, and velocity measurements are obtained.
Using sophisticated CFD solvers, physical laws expressed in partial differential equations are transformed into algebraic equations and solved numerically to yield reliable and accurate results.
As a CFD Engineer, one holds many duties and responsibilities, some of which include:
The following is a compilation of must-learn skills for CFD engineers.
In 2023, the outlook for Computational Fluid Dynamics (CFD) in mechanical engineering is highly promising. With the proliferation of sophisticated computing technologies, CFD will be utilised to address more intricate concerns in various industries. CFD techniques are used to simulate, evaluate, and enhance the operation of components and systems in the automotive, aerospace, and energy industries.
It will also be deployed to enhance the layout of components and systems employed in those industries, improving efficacy, performance, and safety. As CFD continues to gain traction, there will be a heightened need for mechanical engineers with a background in CFD who can work with and comprehend the data.
