Numerical simulation research in the field of flow and heat engineering

Abstract

The Department of Fluid and Heat Engineering at the University of Miskolc has been very popular with research and development work on numerical simulation over the past decades. Generally, the construction and measurement of a device is very time consuming and costly, but numerical modeling (CFD) allows it to be cheaper and quicker to test a device for flow and/or thermal engineering. From evaluating of the computational it can be deduced where to make changes to the geometry, for example, in order to make the best possible equipment. Numerical simulation is applicable in almost all areas of the industry where flow and heat transfer problems arise. This article describes some of the Department's research and development works using CFD simulation.
