The Numerical Fluid Dynamics Group (gfn) is a research group at the University of Zaragoza (Spain).

At gfn we conduct research on numerical modeling of fluid flow and on energy.

  • CFD models – Development of numerical models for the simulation of fluid flow, heat transfer, chemical reactions

  • Flow research – Computer simulation of industrial and environmental flows

  • Renewable energies – Analysis of the potential and cost of renewable energies

  • National energy systems – Energy balances; supply and demand forecasts; energy affordability, security and sustainability
