This week’s aggregation of CFD bookmarks from around the internet clearly exhibits the quote attributed to Mark Twain, “I didn’t have time to write a short letter, so I wrote a long one instead.” Which makes no sense in this case because due to the magnanimity of my employer, we have a 4-day weekend to celebrate (in the U.S.) the President’s Day holiday. Shown here is a high pressure ratio centrifugal compressor from the Fidelity CFD 2022.1 release.

This is a wonderful edition of This Week in CFD if I do say so myself. Highlights include a great white paper about digital twins, a fun paper about myths in high performance computing, debate and discussion about what exactly generates an airplane’s lift, fluid dynamics in art, and pie delicious pie. Shown here are the surface pressures on blood vessels from a paper cited herein.

This week’s hoard of CFD miscellany includes several items that will require a deep breath and some time to digest. There’s an online interactive text on linear algebra, the International Simulation Olympiad for academia, a very cool video visualization of internal combustion, a survey about PLM status, a video about writing effective [Physician, heal thyself.], a podcast with me and Kenneth Wong, and all the software, application and event news that could be made to fit this format and the time allotted to writing. I just liked this pretty little picture of a mesh and a boundary layer velocity profile from our friends at GridPro.

So many in-person CFD events are coming up in the first half of the year that’s what this edition of This Week in CFD leads with [count the grammar errors in that sentence]. Not to be outdone, the Image of the Week by an industry veteran is both easy on the eyes and informational. If video is more your thing, we have a nice reader-contributed, self-destructing mesh. And if words are your jam, two long reads involving CFD course notes and deep learning. For the rest us there are product launches, CFD applications, and a couple history lessons. Shown here in a simulation demonstrating something new for reducing propeller noise.

Welcome to the first, almost not published, edition of This Week in CFD for 2023. I write “almost not published” because WordPress is having some serious problems today so I’m just publishing what I’ve got before I lose any more work. So while this publishing effort is less than a stellar start to the new year, there’s the usual smattering of event news, applications, software updates, and open positions. Shown here is “the hot chocolate” effect from FYFD’s best of 2022.
