Part of the book series: Fluid Mechanics and Its Applications ((FMIA,volume 104))

Abstract

The future challenges faced in aeronautical engineering to meet legislative targets to protect the environmental are outlined. The numerous sources of unsteadiness found in both propulsive systems and also airframes are discussed and the demands that these pose for traditional modelling approaches are outlined. The need to perform large scale, unsteady simulations is outlined and the computational science problems that arise from making such simulations is given. Computational costs are explored and also the way these control the manner in which simulations are used.
