Computational Fluid Dynamics (CFD) is widely used in the engineering community to simulate all kinds of fluid flow phenomena, be it just fluid flow or aerodynamics, or be it in a multi-physics scenario coupled with other physics simulation solvers like e.g. with Finite Element Analysis (FEA) to simulate material behavior (like fluid-structure interaction for an airplane wing design), or even more complex fluid-structure-electrical interaction simulation of a personalized living heart.

We started these “UberCloud Experiments” in 2012 to perform engineering simulation in the HPC cloud with real engineering applications in order to understand the roadblocks to success and how to overcome them. Our free Compendiums are our way of sharing the experience and results with the broader HPC and engineering community. Our efforts are now paying off. Based on the experience gained over the past six years and on novel HPC software container technology, we have now increased the success rate of the individual experiments to 100%, as compared to 40% in 2013 and 60% in 2014.

All 36 engineering case studies in this CFD Compendium demonstrate the wide applicability of high-performance cloud resources to complex engineering simulation workflows.
