Is CFD a dead end?

I have just finished my thesis and started looking for a job. Beside CFD software compagnies (grid generation and flow solver), there are not many opportunities for those who are involved in the development of new numerical methods. Thus, for those who might be more aware of the pros and cons of various numerical schemes(i.e. have a good understanding of the method they use) and some basic knowledge of the physical aspects.
I had some contacts with the industry (small contracts as a consultant), and it appeared to that they were more intersted in engineers who had very good knowledge of the physical aspects of the problem to be solved with cfd. But, not too aware of the tool they use. From my point of view, CFD is only a tool to solve a physical problem, if you don't know how to use that tool, how can you expect very good results? I would like some comments on the subject from those who have more experience. Thanks. |
