Mathematics for CFD
As an mechanical undergrad student wishing to further my career in the field of CFD, I am in a constant dilemma over not knowing where to draw the line while studying math.
I feel its the work of the mathematicians to bring in the "new methods" which are turned into solving codes by "computer science engineers". But then, am I not just pressing buttons if I don't know the math behind it? If I do chose to study the numerical techniques of solving the system of linear equations for quenching my thirst of knowledge, which would take not just a few weeks but a considerable amount of time, what would i gain from it If there can always be a computer science engineer who can write more optimized and efficient solvers than me?
