Development and contributions to computational fluid dynamics (CFD) at the National Aeronautics and Space Administration (NASA) Glenn Research Center (GRC) during the period from 1947 to the present are reviewed in five categories: numerical methods, physical modeling, CFD codes development, CFD validation and engineering applications, and multidisciplinary design optimization. Some representative results in applications to aero and propulsion systems are included to illustrate the developed capabilities. GRC has a long history of investing resources to develop these key subject matters, with an interest in a wide range of applications, primarily focusing on propulsion-related technologies and concepts. The evolved CFD capabilities have enabled simulations of complex three-dimensional flow fields for engine components and integrated configurations, as illustrated in this article. This article is intended to give a useful, albeit noncomplete, overview into GRC’s work in CFD.
