To study both compressible and incompressible fluid flow through complex passages, Southwest Research Institute (SwRI) engineers use advanced computational fluid dynamics (CFD). Both third-party and internally developed software tools are used.
In the example shown above, the CFD analysis allows the designer to study fluid mixing and combustion characteristics in a locomotive combustion chamber.
Learn more about the use of CFD at SwRI.
