This document discusses the use of computational fluid dynamics (CFD) in automotive, aerodynamics, and machine industries. It provides two case studies as examples: (1) using CFD to study fluid flow and detect cavitation in a centrifugal pump to determine safe operating conditions, and (2) using CFD to analyze the effect of vehicle shape on drag coefficient for a car and jeep. The results show how CFD can be used to study flow distribution, pressure loss, and thermal distribution to improve design in these industries.
