Fluid Dynamics
Developing tools and techniques that domain scientists can use to explore fluid flow problems through projects such as Nek5000 and Coupled Monte Carlo Neutronics and Fluid Flow Simulation.
Argonne’s Mathematics and Computer Science division is developing scalable numerical methods encapsulated in robust software that enables scientific simulation on extreme-scale computers. Our research integrates work with applied mathematicians, computer scientists, and domain scientists both across the laboratory and throughout the world, developing the tools essential for new scientific discoveries and solutions to complex, real-world problems. Our strengths include computational fluid dynamics, higher-order methods, meshing techniques, and multiphysics software. We apply these strengths to DOE’s most critical applications in diverse areas such as astrophysics, Earth systems, energy systems, engineering diagnostics, materials science, and nuclear reactor simulation.
