What is the Better Way to Do CFD?

John C. Chien

(1). Even though everyone knows that modern society is derived from the industrial revolution based on the thermo-fluid dynamics, we are still having great difficulties in understanding the physics of fluid flows. (2). Even though computers are now nearly everywhere, and Internet can reach anywhere in the world, we are still having problems in CFD, not to mention the jobs in CFD. (3). So, it seems to me that there is a need to have a general discussion about "What is the better way to do CFD?" (4). Is CFD just to run some existing codes? What is your point of view ? (5). Who should be doing CFD? the school? or the industries? (6). I think, it is about the time to talk about the better way to do CFD, so that the student, the teachers, the schools, the research labs, the government labs, and the whole industries can all benefit from doing CFD. With this, I hope that there will be enough jobs for everyone who is really interested in CFD and we also will be able to see the benefit of doing CFD. (7). So, is there any better way to do CFD? This should cover all CFD related issues and fields.
