CFD Modeling
WHAT IS CFD?
Computational fluid dynamics (CFD) is a technique used to model the behaviour of fluids. In building design it is typically used to model the movement and temperature of air within spaces. This is important as it allows designers to investigate internal conditions before a building is built, allowing them to test options and select the most effective solutions.
