Computational modelling of complex flow problems profits from a mature basis of Computational Fluid Dynamics (CFD) software developed over the past decades. Early use of CFD was limited to academic research. Nowadays, it is a fully established tool in many industrial applications (e.g., automotive, aerospace), although CFD remains to be one of the most demanding computational tasks and the study of complex flow problems is often limited by the available computational power. The continuous exponential increase in computational power and the improved accessibility of high-performance computing infrastructure was an enabler for the ever-growing use of CFD.
