The notion of "white" refers to a particular form of the frequency spectrum. If I remember right, white noise exhibits a continuous, wide range of frequencies with uniform power (or amplitude?), i.e. each frequency from 0 to infinity contributes equally to white noise. You won't hear any distinct sound out of this noise. I am guessing that the name "white" is in analogy to light: White light consists of a continuous range of frequencies between (not including) UV and infrared.

How are you using this for CFD?

Sometimes the term white noise and pink noise are used by authors in papers on turbulence ( some that i have come across).A good explanation of different noises is provided in wikipedia.
