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
