What's the difference between CFD & FEM-FOR-FLUID?
 

Hi everyone,

I would like to know what is the difference between COMPUTATIONAL FLUID DYNAMICS and FINITE ELEMENT METHOD FOR FLUID?

Which is FUNDAMENTALS and which is ADVANCED?

Best regards

Re: What's the difference between CFD & FEM-FOR-FL
 

CFD refers to any numerical method use to solve fluid flows.

There are several methods to solve flows :

Finite volume method

Finite element method

Boundary element method

Lagrangian method

Discrete element method

etc.
